    Notice of Intent to Extend Contract - 0081512.docx
    The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) intends to extend a contract with CGI Federal Inc. for Mixed Financials and Administrative Hosting Support services. The current contract, which is set to expire on May 31, 2025, will receive a thirty-day extension under FAR Clause 52.217-8 to ensure continuity of mission-critical services while a follow-on contract is being competed. The EPA asserts that CGI Federal is uniquely positioned to provide the necessary support due to its existing infrastructure and experience since 2018. Despite acknowledging that other contractors can offer similar services, the agency believes transitioning to a new provider within this brief period could result in decreased service quality and increased risks. Therefore, they seek to negotiate this extension on a sole source basis, allowing more time to finalize the competitive procurement process for long-term service. Interested parties are invited to submit their capabilities and pricing within 15 days of the announcement, as the government remains open to evaluating potential competition for the contract. Questions related to this procurement must be directed through the designated government portals, with no phone inquiries accepted.
