NASA KSC sole-source lease of an existing modular construction trailer

NASA Kennedy Space Center is justifying a sole-source lease to keep an existing modular building available for mission-support work. - Requirement: A 12-month lease of the existing double-wide construction trailer for KSC’s construction management and corrosion control team. - Proposed contractor: United Rental, as identified in the supporting justification; no manufacturer or model is specified. - Operational need: The facility supports critical center work, including Artemis III launch-pad refurbishment. NASA cites avoiding transition delays and operational downtime as reasons to retain it. - Acquisition approach: Sole-source, firm-fixed-price order; the notice cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(2). NASA indicates it plans to compete the requirement or consider a set-aside after the next fiscal year. - Period: The supporting document states a 12-month lease beginning October 1, 2026, but gives an end date of September 30, 2026. Those dates conflict with each other and with the stated duration; the correct end date is not confirmed. - Order identifier: 80KSC026P0010. No price, part number, or unit count is provided.

Description

This justification provides the rationale for contracting by other than full and open competition to award a sole source order.

The general purpose of this order is to absorb the lease of a modular building already existing and installed on site at KSC, for a total period of 12 months.

The rationale supporting the use of 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(2) is as described in the attached Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition.
