Notice intent to Sole Source Type C AE service

This requirement is a follow-on award to Jacobs Engineering Group. The requirement was previously negotiated and awarded via contract/task order W911YN20F0034. That award included Type A and B services for the design of the Repair Med Trng-B1002b. Type A services included the basis of design (specifically the design intent), the development of the project concept, and associated site investigations. The Type B services included the design narrative and the development of the construction documents.

Because Jacobs Engineering Group designed and certified the drawings and specifications and is liable for the quality of their design, it is economical and efficient to award the Type C services as a sole source follow-on contract. There is tremendous performance and liability risk associated with another A-E firm taking over the Type C services for a project that was designed by a different firm.

Having the original designer, Jacobs Engineering Group, on contract to perform the construction phase services is necessary for the Government to ensure responsibility for their design.
