This document serves as the Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition. 2. Nature and/or description of action being approved: This justification for other than full and open competition is to increase the Maximum Ordering Limitation (MOL) from $700,000,000.00 to $900,000,000.00, an increase of $200,000,000 for the above titled contracts. This is a firm fixed price, Multiple Award, Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for Construction and Design-Build Construction Services to support the AMD under GSA PBS for all GSA regions. Nine (9) IDIQ contracts were awarded on February 3, 2021, with a shared maximum ordering limitation (MOL) for all contracts set at $700,000,000.00. Region 7 AMD exercised Option III for all the contracts on February 4, 2024. Option III expires on 02/03/2025, and there is one last option remaining under the contracts. Currently, $228,659,912.00 remains out of the $700,000,000.00. This proposed increase in the MOL is intended for the nine (9) National Complex Construction IDIQ contractors to be shared so that additional orders can be placed under the IDIQ contracts. 3. Description of supplies or services required to meet the Agencys needs (including the estimated value): On February 4, 2021, the Program Support Branch awarded nine (9) National Complex Construction IDIQ contracts to provide general construction and design build services within the states of Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Texas as well as nationally. The negotiated procurements were accomplished by using a Vendor Evaluation Plan which resulted in the award of nine (9) firm-fixed price IDIQ contracts providing best value to the Government. The IDIQ contracts were for a period of one (1) year from the issuance of the awards with four (4) 1- year option periods. All nine (9) IDIQ contracts share a maximum total combined value of $700,000,000.00 over the five (5) years. To date, $471,340,088.00 has been awarded. The remaining available balance of the MOL is $228,659,912.00. In accordance with FAR regulations, the administrative cost of multiple awards and the scope and complexity of the requirement(s) were deemed to be cost efficient or practical to support multiple award IDIQs as there would be enough work to maintain multiple contractors. The expected benefits of making multiple awards Docusign Envelope ID: 9C8C990A-7E88-499B-B459-B6FA6AB3B3D6 outweighed the expected cost in the administration of multiple award contracts. Therefore, multiple awards were deemed to be in the best interest of the Government. The IDIQ contracts are currently in Option III, Option IV remains and will be exercised on or before February 4, 2025, with an end date of February 3, 2026. The additional anticipated financial need is as follows: Current MOL $700,000,000.00 MOL Usage $471,340,088.00 MOL Current Balance $228,659,912.00 Pending Procurements Estimated Costs $350,000,000.00 Estimated Mod Increase (Current Work 10%) $ 47,134,333.30 Estimated Mod Increase (New Procurements 10%) $ 35,000,000.00 Total of Estimated Costs $432,134,333.30 Total of Estimated Costs $432,134,333.30 MOL Current Balance $228,659,912.00 Increase Needed in MOL $203,474,421.30 Due to the anticipated projected procurements, the MOL needs to be increased approximately $200,000,000.00 to cover the above listed projects and estimated additional costs to ensure the Acquisition Management Division will meet the mission of its clients.
