AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Department of Justice’s Office for Victims of Crime is justifying a limited source procurement to continue peer review support services with BETAH Associates, Inc., the incumbent contractor, to ensure the uninterrupted integrity of critical peer review functions during a planned transition of responsibilities to agency personnel. The services are essential to maintaining accurate, timely, and fair evaluations for grant applicants, preventing risks such as data loss, incomplete reviews, incorrect information in JustGrants, missed deadlines for FY26, and failed knowledge transfer. Given the incumbent’s exclusive, in-depth familiarity with the processes, documentation, and systems involved, no other vendor can deliver the same level of continuity and reliability without jeopardizing the quality and compliance of the peer review program. The solicitation number is 15PVCD26F00000006, classified under NAICS code 541810 for advertising and marketing services, and is posted on SAM.gov with a July 22, 2026, effective date. Performances are centered in Washington, D.C., with the primary point of contact being Jamila A. Garrett of the Office of Justice Programs. This temporary order bypasses competitive bidding under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold exception due to the unique and non-replaceable expertise of the current contractor, ensuring mission-critical activities remain secure and compliant during the transition period.

Full Description
LIMITED SOURCE JUSTIFICATION (LSJ) FOR A FEDERAL SUPPLY SCHEDULE PROCUREMENT FAR/RFO PART 8 - ORDERS EXCEEDING THE SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION THRESHOLD (OVC - Peer Review Support Services)
The requirement for complete, accurate and timely peer review activities is a top priority for OJP to fulfill its mission. It is in the best interest of the government that peer review services be continued while the task of transitioning integral knowledge, processes, and procedures from the contractor to agency personnel in support of efficiency and economy is organized and executed in a timely and successful manner.
BETAH Associates, Inc., as the incumbent, has intimate knowledge of work to be transitioned. Without BETAH Associates, Inc., under contract to transition this knowledge to the agency personnel, significant staff time will be lost, and the integrity of the peer review process will be compromised by the risk of losing data and/or documentation. OJP cannot afford to risk the integrity and quality of the peer review work. This temporary Order will limit the following risks to the Department of Justice: inaccurate information being delivered to grant applicants; incomplete or unfair peer reviews that result in making award based on in accurate information; inaccurate information being uploaded into JustGrants; documentation not filed in a timely fashion; not completing peer review activities for FY26; and unsuccessfully transferring knowledge to agency personnel that may affect performance.
