Notice of Intent for Sole Source Extension - ACES O&M Support

The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) intends to issue a sole source contract modification to Peraton, Inc. for continued Arms Control Enterprise System (ACES) Operations and Maintenance (O&M) Support. This requirement is identified under NAICS code 541519 for Other Computer Related Services and PSC DA01 for IT and Telecom - Business Application/Application Development Support Services (Labor). Work will be performed at Fort Belvoir, Virginia, under contract number HDTRA121C0057.

The proposed modification will extend the current performance period from June 15, 2026, through August 31, 2026, in accordance with FAR 52.217-8. This extension ensures the continuity of O&M services for the ACES platform while the government determines its long-term procurement strategy. The agency is not currently seeking competitive proposals for this effort, as the extension is intended to maintain specialized technical support through the specified period.

Interested parties may submit written evidence of their qualifications and capabilities to Jocelyn Fritz by the response deadline of May 30, 2026. The government will utilize these submissions to determine whether a competitive procurement is warranted, though the final decision remains within the agency's discretion. Information received after the 15-day publication window will be considered non-responsive, and the government will not provide reimbursement for any costs associated with responding to this notice.
