Limited Source Justification

The Department of Education's Federal Student Aid office has issued a limited sources justification for the renewal of Oracle Siebel Software Maintenance with Mythics, Inc. This action, conducted under FAR 8.401, addresses the need to extend the existing contract from February 29, 2008, through February 27, 2011, without issuing a new solicitation. The renewal follows an earlier competitive process among schedule holders that failed to meet FAR Subpart 8.405-6 posting requirements. The total contract value is approximately $1.92 million, and this justification ensures compliance during the contract extension phase. No new proposals or solicitations are being requested for this requirement, and telephone inquiries will not be entertained. The contract supports essential software maintenance services for the Department located in Washington, DC, while Mythics, Inc. operates out of Virginia Beach, VA. Key contacts for the contract include Contract Specialist Julia L. Jones and Contracting Officer Dega K. Hussen, who can be reached via email or phone for official communications related to the contract.
