SUBJECT: Contracting Officer Assessment Regarding IDIQ Ceiling Limits

CONTRACT & MODIFICATION NUMBER: FA700022D0009 P00006 Glass Replacement IDIQ

This memorandum for record substantiates my assessment that this contract modification is within the scope of the contract. This modification incorporates an update to increase the ceiling for the USAFA Replacement and Installation of Glass Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ), FA700022D0009. No work will be added to the issuance of this modification. Changes to the contract are within the terms and conditions of the original contract, in accordance with clause 52.243-4, Changes. BACKGROUND: FA700022D0009 is a firm-fixed IDIQ awarded to Ryan Glass Inc with a contract ceiling of $999,999.00. This ceiling was determined to be sufficient based on the historical data from the previous IDIQ ceiling of $999,999.00 and input from CE’s anticipated requirements for the 5-year ordering period. The previous IDIQ had 10 task orders for a total amount of $782,686.56. There are currently 23 glass task orders awarded on the current IDIQ and is about to exceed the current IDIQ ceiling. Before the current IDIQ was awarded, a sources sought was posted on SAM.gov and four interested contractors were interested but only one contractor proposed. The current IDIQ was awarded to Ryan Glass. Based on historical data and projected requirements from CE, the Contracting Officer did not anticipate the increased number and higher priced tasks orders would exceed the IDIQ maximum limit expiration of the current IDIQ. DESCRIPTION OF THE ACTION: The purpose of this modification is to increase the maximum ceiling limit for the current IDIQ. This increased limit would allow 10 CONS to award additional task orders until the current IDIQ’s end date of 15 September 2027 to meet mission requirements. Although the ceiling would be increased, the work inherent in the contract is not out of scope of its original intent. Ryan Glass is the only contractor who can meet the additional requirements for the remainder of the current IDIQ without prematurely soliciting for a new IDIQ. This ceiling increase allows 10 CONS to award task orders until the current IDIQ is recompeted and awarded before 15 September 2027. This latest modification would be to change the following: Current per-task-order maximum: $200,000.00
Proposed per-task-order maximum: $450,000.00
Current aggregate IDIQ maximum: $999,999.00
Proposed aggregate IDIQ maximum: $1,200,000.00
