AI Contract Overview

The Marine Corps Installations Pacific Regional Contracting Office in Hawaii plans to award a sole-source bridge contract for management and mess hall attendant services at Marine Corps Base Hawaii Anderson Hall and its satellite dining facilities. This contract, intended for incumbent vendor Hawaii Department of Human Services ("Ho'Opono"), the state licensing agency under the Randolph-Sheppard Act, will cover a base period of one year from May 1, 2020, to April 30, 2021, with a six-month option and a potential six-month extension, totaling up to two years. The award will include an 18% subcontracting goal. The sole-source approach is justified under federal acquisition regulations, citing that only one responsible source can satisfy the agency's requirements. This action follows a previous competitive solicitation among 8(a) small businesses that resulted in an award to a different vendor, but a court injunction now prevents implementation of that award and mandates continued contracting with Ho'Opono during ongoing arbitration under the Randolph-Sheppard Act. Due to the court order, the contracting office has obtained a waiver from posting a request for information, as soliciting additional capability statements is deemed ineffective while the injunction is in place. The notice clearly states it is not a solicitation for proposals, and all communications should be directed in writing to the designated contract specialist. This procurement relates to the NAICS code 722310 and will be performed at the Marine Corps Base in Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, under the oversight of the Department of Defense’s Commanding Officer.

Full Description

Prior to 1 May 2020, the Marine Corps Installations Pacific Regional Contracting Office - Hawaii ("RCO-Hawaii") intends to solicit and award a sole-source bridge contract under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), as set forth in FAR 6.302-1, Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Award will be to incumbent Hawaii Department of Human Services ("Ho'Opono"), the state licensing agency ("SLA") under the Randolph-Sheppard Act ("RSA"). The anticipated period of performance will be a one year base period from 1 May 2020 to 30 April 2021, a six-month option period from 1 May 2021 - 31 October 2021, and up to six months of service extension pursuant to FAR 52.217-8 from 1 November 2021 - 30 April 2022. The maximum length, including all options and extensions, will be two years. Services to be obtained are management and mess hall attendant services ("M&MA") at Marine Corps Base Hawaii Anderson Hall and satellite dining facilities. The award to Ho'Opono will set an 18% subcontracting goal. RCO-Hawaii previously competed this requirement among 8(a) small businesses under RFP M00318-17-R-0003. In accordance with the RSA, the SLA was also solicited. Award was made to an 8(a) vendor, and the SLA invoked RSA arbitration. RCO-Hawaii is enjoined by court order from implementing the competitive 8(a) award and must maintain Ho'Opono as its M&MA vendor pending final outcome of RSA arbitration or lifting of the preliminary injunction. See attached justification and approval for additional information. This notice of intent is NOT a request for proposals. In accordance with DFARS PGI 206.302-1(d), RCO-Hawaii obtained an approved waiver from posting a request for information. Evaluating capability statements from other vendors is not efficient or effective while RCO-Hawaii remains enjoined from awarding to other than Ho'Opono. All questions regarding this procurement should be submitted in writing to contract specialist Erin Eslinger at contact@example.gov.
