The Defense Threat Reduction Agency's Cooperative Threat Reduction Office seeks to contract the dismantlement, decontamination, and removal of critical defueling equipment at the On Shore Defueling Facility (OSDF) located at the Joint Stock Company Shiprepairing Center "Zvyozdochka" in Russia. This work is critical and specialized, and as such, the agency intends to award a sole source contract to the Zvyozdochka Shipyard, as no other sources possess the necessary experience, knowledge, and access to carry out the required tasks. The procurement is authorized under a statutory exception allowing noncompetitive awards when only one responsible source is available under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1. The contract, identified by solicitation number CTO119922455, aligns with NAICS code 562211 and is managed by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency headquartered in Fort Belvoir, Virginia. The nature of the contract involves sensitive, specialized services related to hazardous materials, emphasizing the importance of expertise and secure access found only at the specified Russian facility. The agency has not committed to awarding the contract at this stage. Patricia H Maxson serves as the contracting officer and point of contact for this opportunity.
