Fiscal year 2017 other procurement (Navy) funding in the amount of $1,602,500 will be obligated at time of award; and FY 2017 operations and maintenance (Navy) of $1,198,168 will be obligated at time of award and will expire at the end of the current fiscal year. The contract was not competitively procured; the services needed are available from only one responsible source and no other services satisfy agency requirements. The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock is the contracting activity.
