Notice of Intent to Modify Contract N65236-18-D-8014

The Naval Information Warfare Center Atlantic plans to increase the ceiling of contract N6523618D8014 by $100 million without changing the contract’s period of performance. This ceiling increase is intended to support the completion of all current task orders under the contract and to avoid delays in delivering necessary capabilities until a new contract can be awarded through competitive means. The Government intends to negotiate this modification exclusively with Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) under sole-source authority, citing specific regulatory provisions that allow for limited competition. This notice is not a solicitation for competitive proposals, but responses are welcome if they provide compelling reasons why competition would benefit the Government. The contract relates to services classified under NAICS Code 541330, indicative of engineering services, and is managed by NIWC Atlantic, a Department of Defense office located in North Charleston, South Carolina. Interested parties may submit comments or questions regarding the intended modification by the stated deadline, with Kari Hill designated as the point of contact. The Government has discretionary authority to proceed without competition based on this notice, ensuring continuity in contractual support and capability development while the follow-on contract is being prepared.
