SPAWAR Systems Center, Pacific plans to negotiate a sole-source contract modification with Computer Sciences Corporation, Professional Software Engineering Inc., and L-3 Communications Titan Corporation under their existing multiple award contracts N66001-04-D-5031, 5032, and 5006. This modification aims to increase the combined ceiling by 123,770 hours of effort and extend the period of performance by one year, with Computer Sciences Corporation’s new end date set for February 19, 2010, and L-3 Communications Titan Corporation and Professional Software Engineering Inc. ending on April 27, 2010. These extensions will provide sufficient time to award a competitive follow-on contract, anticipated to be released around the third quarter of fiscal year 2009. The contract modification will be issued as a sole-source action under FAR 6.302-1, justified by the avoidance of substantial duplication of cost and time if another contractor were used to develop the necessary technical capability. This approach is intended to maintain continuity and efficiency by leveraging the existing contractors' expertise. No solicitation is currently available, and interested parties cannot submit proposals at this time. Inquiries regarding this sole-source modification can be directed to the designated Navy contact. The overall effort supports the Information Systems and Network Technology Programs managed by the Department of Defense’s NIWC Pacific office located in San Diego, California.
