Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy / SOUTHEAST REGIONAL MAINT CENTER has issued a Justification for an Exception to Fair Opportunity for new work on the USS INDIANAPOLIS (LCS 17). This justification covers urgent preservation tasks (RCC 2N) to be performed by Tecnico Corporation (JAX) under an existing delivery order, citing urgent agency need (FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(A)).
Purpose
This document justifies an exception to the fair opportunity process for a new work request (RCC 2N) to be added to firm-fixed-price delivery order N40027-27-F-0015, which was issued under IDIQ/MAC N00024-21-D-4462 to Tecnico Corporation (JAX). The base IDIQ MAC was competitively awarded.
Scope of Work
The new work involves accomplishing immediate preservation to the Main Deck and Above on the Superstructure, Main Mast, and the Port and Starboard Weather decks onboard USS INDIANAPOLIS (LCS 17). This is identified as Work Item 631-11-001 (RCC 2N) and is part of the CMAV, SSP SERM-005-26. The urgent need is to retard corrosion and minimize visual detectability.
Rationale for Exception
The authority cited is FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(A) - Urgent agency need. Providing fair opportunity for this work would result in unacceptable delays, jeopardizing the ship and crew. Tecnico Corporation (JAX) is the current contractor for the CMAV, possesses prior experience with similar work, and has direct access to required resources. The scope and nature of the work, combined with the necessity to deconflict with previously planned activities, requires performance by a single prime contractor to mitigate schedule risks.
