J&A for Other than Full and Open Competition - Increase Capacity on MATOC

The contract action pertains to a non-competitive increase in capacity under the 2021 Architect-Engineer Military IIS Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity Multiple Award Task Order Contract (IDIQ MATOC), identified by modification number W912DW21D1001-1008_IncreaseCapacityJA. This justification, issued under 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1) and RFO 6.103-1, authorizes a sole-source expansion of the existing contract ceiling from $85 million to $95 million to accommodate unexercised options and anticipated future task orders without initiating a new procurement. The action is based on the need to avoid cost duplication, maintain continuity of ongoing projects, preserve contractor familiarity with program-specific requirements, and mitigate labor rate escalation risks associated with transitioning to a new contractor. The procuring entity is the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Seattle District, with administrative oversight and performance centered in Seattle, Washington. The contract delivers architectural and engineering services for military and interagency infrastructure, including new construction, renovations, utility systems, site planning, and sustainable design, governed by FAR 2.101 and 40 U.S.C. 1101, and aligned with USACE sustainability standards. No evaluation factors, competitive procedures, or detailed pricing line items are applicable, as this is not a competition but an adjustment to an existing contract. The contract remains under the framework of the original 2021 MATOC, with seven pre-selected contractors eligible for future task orders. Payment, invoicing, delivery, and inspection details are governed by standard DoD practices, though no specific remittance addresses, Incoterms, or inspection locations are formally documented. Point of contact information is provided for the contracting office, but specific roles such as COR, COTR, or PCO names and contact details are not included. No special requirements, representations, certifications, or packaging specifications are detailed beyond general statutory compliance. The modification does not involve solicitations, proposals, or offeror submissions, and the justification is publicly disclosed to satisfy transparency requirements.
