JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION

41 USC 3304 (a): USE OF NONCOMPETITIVE PROCEDURES

J&A-26-0098, Rev. 1
Pursuant to the requirements of the Competition in Contracting Act (CICA) as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.103 (FAR Class Deviation 25-111) and in F

The definitized action reflects an increased period of performance and increased estimated cost from the original letter contract planning assumptions. These increases are necessary to provide continued detention and facility management services while ICE
