R--Notice of Intent - Sole Source

The U.S. Department of Energy's Oak Ridge Office plans to issue a noncompetitive modification to extend the contract with Professional Project Services, Inc. (Pro2Serve) for an additional 12 months, covering the period from March 4, 2018, to March 3, 2019. This extension supports ongoing technical assistance provided to the DOE's Nuclear Energy Oak Ridge Site Office during critical activities, including the shutdown of the Demonstration Cascade and the termination of Centrus' Nuclear Regulatory Commission license for the Lead Cascade used in uranium enrichment at Piketon, Ohio. Additionally, the contract modification encompasses support related to the DOE's lease agreement with Centrus for classified research and development facilities located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. The work primarily falls under the NAICS code 541330, indicating engineering services, and is a sole-source procurement without a competitive solicitation process. This continuation ensures the DOE maintains the necessary technical expertise during the closure and regulatory transition phases associated with the uranium enrichment operations and facility leases.
