The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Buffalo District intends to negotiate and award a firm-fixed price contract on a non-competitive basis in accordance with FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii) based on only one responsible source and no other supplies or services being able to satisfy agency requirements. The Government requires additional Architect-Engineering design services for the Big John Salvage – Hoult Road Superfund Site in Fairmont, WV, which are currently being performed by Tetra Tech, Inc. The current task order was awarded in February 2023, with a completion date of 29 February 2028. Tetra Tech, Inc. is the designer of record (DoR), preparing design reports to implement non-time critical removal actions at the Uplands and River Areas of the Big John Salvage Superfund Site. The Government intends to negotiate and award a sole source contract to Tetra Tech, Inc. for additional design services related to updates and changes needed for the design of the removal actions. It is anticipated this increase will allow future considerations to be incorporated into the removal design reports being prepared for the Site. The intent of this action is to minimize delays to ongoing removal design activities and eliminate duplication of costs. This need to sole source is due to the base contract lacking contract capacity to accommodate the costs associated with the design updates and changes. The NAICS is 541330 – Engineering Services. This contract action will be justified in accordance with FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii): (A) Substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition; and (B) Unacceptable delays in fulfilling agency’s requirements. (See 10 U.S.C 3204(b)(B)). The justification will be made publicly available within 14 days of contract award. If industry has any comments on the Government’s intent, please forward them by 27 September 2024, to frank.j.dandrea@usace.army.mil and jenna.n.grainer@usace.army.mil. Supporting evidence must be in sufficient detail to demonstrate the ability to comply with the requirement and minimize delays and duplicative costs. Responses received will be evaluated, however, a determination by the government to compete the proposed procurement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. This is not a request for proposal or request for capability statements. ## Publications - September 13, 2024: Special notice, due September 27, 2024 at 3:00 PM EDT.
