This ceiling increase is necessary to support an urgent sole source delivery order to VSE Corp. to provide material and labor in support of overhaul, maintenance, and repair of the Egyptian Navy long range maintenance plan schedule for four Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigates (FFG-7 class ships), four fast missile crafts, and two mine hunter coastals. Work for this contract in its entirety will be performed outside the continental U.S. (80%); and within the continental U.S. (20%) based on delivery orders as assigned. Work is expected to be completed by March 2023. Foreign Military Sales (Egypt) funds in the amount of $85,131,090 (99%); and fiscal 2023 Foreign Military Sales Administration funds in the amount of $859,910 (1%) will be obligated at the delivery order level and will not expire at the end of the current fiscal year. This contract was not competitively procured via the System for Award Management website. This sole-source award is justified pursuant to 10 U.S. Code 2304(c)(1) — only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements; and in accordance with Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii)(B) — requirements may be deemed to be available only from the original source in the case of follow-on contracts for the continued provision of highly specialized requirements when it is likely that award to any other source would result in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency’s requirements. The Naval Sea Systems Command, Washington, D.C., is the contracting activity (N00024-22-D-4205).
