Exercise of Option for Worldwide Warehouse Redistribution Services (WWRS) In-transit Inspection and Services

The contract modification involves the exercise of an option under FAR Clause 52.217-9 to extend the term of Contract FA8630-12-M-5026 with Baker & Associates, Inc., located in Dayton, Ohio. This extension will maintain the current rates agreed upon in the original contract and extends the period of performance from January 1, 2013, through December 31, 2013, with a total value of $661,039.00. The contract pertains to Worldwide Warehouse Redistribution Services (WWRS), specifically in-transit inspection and related services, supporting operations at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio. This action is not a request for new competitive proposals but a routine exercise of a previously established option, necessary because the option periods were not initially synopsized in the award notice. The contract is designated as a Total Small Business Set-Aside under FAR 19.5 and falls under NAICS code 493190 for warehousing and storage. Key points of contact include Bryan L. Davis, Contract Negotiator, and Wanda L. Bronston-Grigsby, Contracting Officer, both available for inquiries related to this modification.
