NAICS 811219 - $7M

The U.S. Army Contracting Command - Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG) Edgewood Contracting Division intends to negotiate an extension of the period of performance under existing sole source Purchase Order W911SR-15-P-0008 with MRIGlobal, Inc., 425 Volker Blvd Kansas City, MO 64110 under the authority of FAR 13.106(b)(1)(i), for maintenance/sustainment of the Individual Protection Ensemble Mannequin System (IPEMS) facility at Dugway Proving Ground (DPG), Utah. The IPEMS was designed, developed and installed at DPG by MRIGlobal under competitively awarded contract.

MRIGlobal designed IPEMS as a highly specialized unique system which is in the component level verification stage of development and consists of an integrated IPE Mannequin, exposure chamber, and control room. Since the IPEMS is incomplete, and the required maintenance program has not been fully developed, the Government requires a contractor familiar with this highly specialized one-of-a-kind system to perform the maintenance during FY2016. Currently, the Government does not have trained individuals on site at DPG with operational knowledge and experience to properly sustain the IPEMS facility. The anticipated award of the modified Purchase Order is anticipated no later than 23 February 2016.
