Quick Summary

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 3 Contracting Office has issued a Limited Source Justification (LSJ) for an urgent and compelling bridge task order to provide Information Technology, Telecommunication Support Services, and Geospatial Support Services for EPA Region 1 in Boston, MA. This action is critical to ensure continuity of operations and prevent service disruption. The bridge task order is expected to be awarded to the incumbent contractor, LinTech Global, Inc.

Scope of Work

The required services include:

  • Desktop Management Services Support
  • User Training
  • Internet/Intranet Support Services
  • Multimedia Support Services
  • Regional Emergency Operations Center IT Support
  • Local Area Network (LAN)/Software Support
  • Voice, Mobile Device and Data Telecommunications (VTC)
  • Geographic Information Systems Support
  • Data Entry and Data Management Support

Contract Details

  • Type: Limited Source Bridge Task Order
  • Estimated Value: $633,259.90
  • Duration: Three (3) month base period with one (1) three-month option period
  • Authority: FAR 8.4, GSAR 538.7104-3, and EPA Policy (EPAAP) Subsection 6.3.1, under GSA Schedule Contract GS-35F-0343W (primarily SINS 54151S).
  • Incumbent: LinTech Global, Inc.

Justification & Context

This LSJ is necessary due to an urgent and compelling requirement to avoid a lapse in critical IT services following the expiration of the previous task order (68HE0319F0020) on February 28, 2026. The need for this bridge arose from delays in the acquisition process, including a Federal Government shutdown (Oct 1 - Nov 12, 2025) and a protest filed with the U.S. Court of Federal Claims (COFC) regarding the MRITSS award. The bridge will cover the period until a new, properly solicited requirement can be awarded.

Eligibility & Future Opportunities

The incumbent contractor, LinTech Global, Inc., is a small business. While this bridge is a limited source action, future IT requirements are intended to be placed under recently awarded MRITSS BPAs and competed among GSA IT MAS contractors in the 8(a) competitive pool.

Submission & Evaluation

This document is a justification for a limited source award and does not include instructions for proposal submission or evaluation criteria.
