Notice of Intent to Exercise an Option - 6309R5201004 and 63093161004

The contract involves exercising the first option year under FAR 52.217-9 to extend the performance period of the existing agreement with Grande Garbage Collection, located in Rio Grande City, Texas. This extension will maintain the current contractual rates and extend service delivery until September 30, 2016. The value of this option year is $10,920.00, reflecting the continuation of services already established under contract IBM15P0037. The contract includes two option years in total, and this notice serves to inform of the intent to exercise the first of those options. This action is not a solicitation for new competitive proposals but a formal notification required because the option periods were not originally synopsized with the award announcement. The contract falls under NAICS code 562111, which pertains to waste collection services, and the designated point of contact for further information is Sylvia Grindstaff, Purchasing Agent. The modification aligns with the government's interest in continued service without any change to rates or terms except for the extended contract period.
