Quick Summary

This Justification and Approval (J&A) from the Department of the Navy / NAVFACSYSCOM EUROPE AFRICA CENTRAL authorizes a bridge extension for the existing Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Job Order Contract (JOC) N33191-20-D-0811 at Camp Lemonnier, Djibouti. The extension is for up to twelve months, from September 30, 2025, to September 29, 2026, structured as a 6-month base period plus a 6-month option. This action is necessary to ensure continuity of critical facility services until a follow-on JOC contract is awarded.

Scope of Work

The JOC covers essential renovations, repairs, maintenance, replacement, alteration, and demolition of facilities at Camp Lemonnier, Djibouti (CLDJ). This includes incidental design and preparation of plans. Examples of work include fire protection systems, building repairs, electrical standby generator systems, sports field repairs, and flightline facility repairs. Task orders under this JOC typically range from $2,000 to $8,000,000.

Rationale for Extension

The extension is justified by an urgent need to execute multiple time-sensitive minor construction projects planned for Fiscal Year 2026 (FY26) at CLDJ. Significant workload is projected, and the harsh environment in the Horn of Africa accelerates infrastructure deterioration, necessitating prompt repairs. A gap in JOC coverage would pose an unacceptable risk to mission readiness, airfield safety, and personnel/equipment safety. The JOC provides a rapid, efficient, and cost-effective method for these numerous construction projects.

Contract Details

  • Current Contract: N33191-20-D-0811 (IDIQ Job Order Contract)
  • Extension Period: Up to 12 months (September 30, 2025 - September 29, 2026)
  • Structure: 6-month base period + 6-month option
  • Maximum Ordering Quantity: $75,000,000 (no additional capacity required for this extension)
  • Authority: 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) (FAR 6.302-1), citing only one responsible source.
  • Published Date: March 2, 2026

Follow-on Acquisition Strategy

A follow-on JOC solicitation is planned for release in September 2025, with an anticipated award in March 2026 (Q2 FY26). The scope of this future contract will be expanded to include U.S. Government-controlled areas in Somalia. While efforts were made to solicit from multiple offerors for the extension, the current contractor was identified as the only source capable of providing the required services within the necessary timeline to avoid mission impact.
