    The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued a justification for other than full and open competition for a bridge contract pertaining to Operations and Maintenance (O&M) services at its Cincinnati facilities under Contract No. 68HERC25D0016. Internal delays in the solicitation process have necessitated this extension to avoid a lapse in critical support services, particularly boiler operations and safety systems crucial for facility health and security. The bridge contract is set for a base period of three months, from April 1, 2025, to June 30, 2025, with an optional month extending to July 31, 2025. The estimated value of the contract is $1,810,260.92, based on established labor rates and historical material costs. The need for urgent support is established under 41 U.S.C. §3304(a)(2), allowing for expedited procurement due to unusual urgency. Market research indicated that incumbent contractor Dawson Solutions, LLC, possesses the essential qualification and security clearances to fulfill O&M tasks effectively. Thus, a bridge contract to the current contractor is deemed the feasible solution to ensure continued operational support while a follow-on procurement is finalized.
