ACADEMIC RESEARCH ENGINEERING AND ANALYSIS

The contract titled "ACADEMIC RESEARCH ENGINEERING AND ANALYSIS," initially awarded with a five-year performance period from March 1, 1997, to February 28, 2003, is set for a four-month extension until June 30, 2003. This extension is intended to bridge the gap until a new competitive procurement, identified by solicitation number N66001-03-R-0004, can be processed and awarded. The contract falls under the Department of Defense, specifically the Naval Information Warfare Center Pacific, located in San Diego, California. This short-term extension ensures continuity of services related to academic research, engineering, and analysis without interruption while the government finalizes the next phase of procurement. No additional details about set-asides or NAICS codes are provided, and the place of performance remains unspecified. This careful extension reflects the agency’s intent to maintain operational stability as it transitions to a new contract.
