Description
The Government intends to exercise a six-month extension period, in accordance with FAR 52.217-8, to the existing sole-source Operations and Maintenance (O&M) Support Halley�s COMET Bridge Task Order (TO) 47QFEA25F0004 while the Government contemplates its new key focus areas and requirements. Exercising the FAR 52.217-8 clause will incorporate six months of performance from March 27, 2026, through September 26, 2026. This current Task Order was awarded under the International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contract GS-35F-110DA. FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services was incorporated into the Task Order but was not evaluated in accordance with FAR 17.202 (a) which states, �prior to awarding the basic contract, the contracting officers must evaluate offers for option quantities or periods included in the solicitation�. As a result this Sole Source Justification provides evidence that the six month option incorporated into the task order award is in the best interest of the Government.
