GSA Regional Local Service Agreement (RLSA) Extension Notice-of-Intent-not-a-solicitation

The General Services Administration (GSA) plans to negotiate a sole source extension for Frontier West Virginia’s regional Local Service Agreement (LSA) contract GS03T09DS0013, which is set to expire on May 30, 2020. The extension will continue contract performance until May 31, 2023, with an estimated value of $21 million shared. This action is authorized under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) exception for public interest, allowing the contract to bypass full and open competition. The extension supports agencies in transitioning from the current RLSA to the upcoming Enterprise Infrastructure-Solution (EIS) contracts, providing necessary time for implementing IT modernization efforts. GSA has determined that the extension serves the public interest by enhancing cybersecurity, improving technical and operational efficiencies, and promoting long-term cost savings. The contract falls under the NAICS code 517311, which covers wired telecommunications carriers, and the work will be conducted in the Mid-Atlantic region. The notice is a non-solicitation communication and emphasizes that the extension is required to maintain continuity and ensure a smooth transition in IT services within the federal government. The contracting officer responsible for this extension is Jacqueline T. Stanback.
