This is a notice of intent to issue a modification to extend the performance period of task order 70RSAT25FC0000007 for Information Technology Support Services (ITSS) issued against Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) 70RSAT22A00000001 with Silosmashers, Inc., 12001 Sunrise Valley Drive, Suite 202, Reston, VA 20191. The task order will be modified to extend performance for 10 months on a non-competitive basis. The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) implemented by the FAR Subpart 6.103-1 (FAR Class Deviation 25-11) entitled “Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.” Background This modification to existing task order 70RSAT25FC0000007 for Information Technology Support Services (ITSS) will maintain support services to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science & Technology Directorate (S&T) Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) in the areas of program management, business management, enterprise architecture alignment, IT governance, and regulatory compliance for platforms such as SharePoint, ServiceNow, and Microsoft Power Platform.
