Notice of Sole Source CNAP Aviation Cost Evaluation System (ACES) Support

The U.S. Navy, through NAVSUP Fleet Logistics San Diego, intends to award a sole source contract to CACI, INC. FEDERAL for critical technical and analytical support services to sustain and enhance the Aviation Cost Evaluation System (ACES), the official system used to calculate and defend the Flying Hour Program budget for Commander, Naval Air Forces, U.S. Pacific Fleet. This action is justified under the sole source provision due to the unique, proprietary nature of the ACES, ASKIT, and ACE reporter systems, which are currently hosted on the incumbent contractor’s commercial domain and require immediate transition to the government-controlled GOVCLOUD and authenticated .mil infrastructure. The contract has a base period of six months with a two-month option, sufficient only to complete the secure migration, obtain an Authorization to Operate, and ensure system stability under Navy ERP data structures without disrupting vital financial reporting or fleet operations. The transition is time-sensitive and carries high risk if delayed, prompting the government to avoid a competitive process at this stage while ensuring continuity of mission-critical functions. Interested parties may submit capability statements addressing the legal, technical, and secure methods for extracting and migrating data from the existing commercial environment to GOVCLOUD without interrupting the Flying Hour Program cycle, but no solicitation or request for proposals will be issued. The government retains full discretion to proceed with the sole source award to CACI, INC. FEDERAL or to later conduct a competitive SeaPort-NxG procurement for long-term sustainment. All submissions must be received by July 30, 2026, and the point of contact for inquiries is Christine Jordan at NAVSUP Fleet Logistics San Diego.
