AI Contract Overview
This contract extends services for the maintenance and repair of diesel generator systems at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine, through a sole-source modification to ensure uninterrupted 100% operational readiness of mission-critical power systems in support of OP-4 requirements. The six-month extension, running from May 1, 2026, to October 30, 2026, is exercised under FAR 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, and is justified under 10 U.S.C. § 3204(b)(B)(ii) due to the unique and specialized capabilities of the current contractor, Bamajack, LLC, which are not available from any other source. A full and open competition is deemed impractical given the short duration of the extension and the unacceptable operational risk posed by a transition to a new vendor, including potential service gaps and delays in mobilization and familiarity with the systems. The base contract, awarded on May 1, 2025, was a firm-fixed-price agreement, and this extension maintains identical scope, rates, and terms, with no changes to pricing structure or performance methodology. The work involves preventative and remedial maintenance for Caterpillar Models 3512C and C32 diesel generators and associated components, with all services performed on-site at the shipyard. The extension was approved through PL-2399, a Justification and Approval document dated April 21, 2026, which was reviewed and signed by the Contracting Officer, Technical Cognizance, and Legal Sufficiency Officer. Funding is sourced from Fiscal Year 2026 Operations & Maintenance, Navy, and while no formal evaluation factors, inspection standards, or packaging requirements are detailed, acceptance of services occurs at the performance location under Navy oversight. The original contract and its extension are both firm-fixed-price, with no separate invoicing instructions, payment office details, or solicitation-based requirements provided, consistent with a non-competitive, necessity-driven modification. No representations, certifications, or socioeconomic status disclosures from the contractor are included, and while a follow-on contract is anticipated, it remains unpriced and unfinalized.

Full Description
It was identified by the project and C400 that this contract extension is necessary to support OP-4 requirements by
ensuring diesel generator systems are maintained in a 100% operational status. A sole-source action is the most
effective approach to guarantee continuity of service and eliminate the risks associated with a contractor transition
during this 6-month period. Maintaining the current provider ensures there is no gap in service, which is paramount
for a system requiring constant availability. Proceeding with full and open competition for a short-term extension
would cause unacceptable delays and inefficiencies in fulfilling the Navy’s needs. The time required for solicitation,
evaluation, and award process, followed by a new vendor's mobilization and familiarization, would exceed the
intended period of performance and introduce a period of heightened risk for these units. This disruption would
present an unacceptable risk. Therefore, extending the current contract is the most efficient, risk adverse, and costeffective
course of action too. This has been explained in detail in the attached PL-2399 Justification and Approval document,
approved on 21 April 2026.
