Posted December 21, 201113 yr comment_11816 CIO-SP2i was originally awarded in Dec 2000 for a 10 year period and was set to expire on 20 Dec 2010. Last year, the contract was extended until 20 Dec 2011 to allow them time to get CIO-SP3 awarded. As of this morning, the NITAAC web site CIO-SP2i FAQ shows the contract extended through 20 Dec 2012. My question is - what authority would they likely be using to do this since it cannot be FAR 52.217-8?
December 21, 201113 yr comment_11817 If you look at the NITAAC website you'll find master mod number 6 that extended the period of performance. It cites unusual and compelling urgency as the authority.

It cites unusual and compelling urgency as the authority. Thanks - I just looked again and they posted Mod 8 citing same authority for a 6 month extension and that the FAQs were updated since my original post to reflect a June 2012 date instead of the Dec 2012 date. Guess those CIO-SP3 awards must be fairly close
