Description
This is a notice for the completion of a Justification and Approval for a bridge requirement for DFAC Services for facilities in Baumholder.
NOTE: SAM.gov has not been updated to reflect current regulation prescriptions in accordance with the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO). Under the RFO, which went into effect 01 February 2026, many changes to the FAR have been enacted, including rewrites to regulation and deletion of regulation,as well as revisions to regulation prescriptions. As such, while FAR Part 13.5 is selected as the authority for the Justification, that option is only selected because there is no selection that correspondence with active present day regulation. The proper authority is FAR Part 12.201-1 which allows the use of Simplified Acquisition Procedures on requirements up to $9 million, in conjunction with 10 U.S.C 2304(c)(2) and 41 U.S.C 3304(a)(2) - Agency's need for the services is of such an unusual and compelling urgency that the Government would be seriously injured, financially or otherwise.
