Protest Biddings - Procurement Opportunities

The Department of Defense, Washington Headquarters Services, Acquisition Directorate is seeking a firm-fixed-price contract for professional support services. The contract is a short-term bridge contract for six months, with a three-month base period and three one-month option periods, to maintain continuity of service while a protest against a previous task order is resolved. The services are required for the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Performance Improvement Office, Director for Administration and Management. The contract will be awarded to Analytic Services, Inc. (Anser) as a sole source acquisition. The justification for limited source is due to the need to avoid delays and maintain critical support, and the potential for losing the expertise of the Anser contract team. The government posted a notice of intent (NOI) on SAM. gov, but did not receive any responses. The period of performance is from May 6, 2025, to November 5, 2025.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) seeks to extend a task order for program management services to Reli Group, Inc. The current task order is under protest, and the extension is necessary to maintain uninterrupted services for the National Explosives Detection Canine Team Program (NEDCTP) and Chemical Explosives Branch (CEB) while the agency resolves the protest. The extension period is 9 months, with a base period of April 25, 2025 to July 24, 2025, and two 3-month optional periods. The justification for sole-source acquisition is based on the unique expertise and specialized knowledge of Reli Group, Inc. , and the urgent need to avoid service disruptions. A request for information was conducted to support the competitive procurement. The contracting officer has determined that the pricing for the extension is fair and reasonable. Once the protest is resolved, a new blanket purchase agreement will be competed.

The agency has an ombudsman program for agency protests (OPAP) to resolve concerns informally or formally. Protests must be filed within the period specified in FAR ****(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program should be submitted electronically to ***@***. *. * and the contracting officer or by hand delivery to the contracting officer.
