    CASS DnF_ Single Award IDIQ over 100M_24 May 24_SPE SIGNED_Redacted.pdf
    The Defense Health Agency (DHA) intends to award an indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract for Contracting and Acquisition Support Services (CASS), with a maximum value of $225 million, running from February 15, 2025, to February 14, 2030. This single-award contract is justified under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304d and 41 U.S.C. 4101, given the complexity and scope of the requirements. The DHA determined that due to the integrated nature of the projected orders, only one contractor can effectively perform the necessary work without risking delays or inconsistencies. The DHA's current contractor has successfully fulfilled these tasks, and a single award will provide better responsiveness to frequent changes in staffing and requirements. Additionally, this approach will save time and resources compared to managing multiple contractors, which would complicate execution and increase administrative burdens. Overall, the DHA's decision aims to enhance operational efficiency and ensure the mission's success through a streamlined contracting process.
