## Description

In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.305, the U.S. Army Contracting Command &ndash; Rock Island at Picatinny (ACC-RI-PICA), on behalf of the Project Manager for Combat Ammunition Systems (PM CAS), is hereby posting the Justification and Approval (J&A) for a sole-source action to the Arizona Department of Emergency and Military Affairs (DEMA).

This justification, Control Number CAO-26-0032, provides the authority for a one-year extension of services under contract W15QKN-21-C-0002 for the continued storage, material handling, maintenance, and inspection of 155mm artillery ammunition at Camp Navajo, AZ.

This action is necessary to ensure continuity of these critical services and prevent a gap in mission support while a long-term follow-on contract is finalized. The action was justified in accordance with FAR 13.501(a)(1)(ii), as DEMA is the only responsible source capable of meeting the Government's requirements without unacceptable schedule delays and duplication of cost.

The redacted Justification and Approval document is attached.
