Life Support Services 19AQMM26C0204
Summary
AI-generated · Jun 13, 2026Provide an extension of the current Life Support Services (LSS) contract to maintain uninterrupted life support and maintenance for the Residential Compound (RC) and Embassy Compound (EC) during the drawdown and decommissioning, as operations transition to the New Embassy Compound (NEC). The NEC is planned to open in late 2028 to early 2029; once open, LSS responsibility will shift to the NEC, with only limited services remaining at RC and EC to support orderly decommissioning and closeout. This phased approach allows the government to plan and run a full and open competition for the NEC LSS without disrupting operations.
The extension would run for about 31 months at near-full scope, with a possible extension to 33 months if NEC completion is delayed, followed by an eight-month reduced LSS period (roughly March to October 2029) to finalize transition and closeout. A competition for the long-term NEC LSS contract is slated to begin in early 2027.
The extension is required to maintain uninterrupted life support and maintenance services during the drawdown and decommissioning of the Residential Compound (RC)--which includes the Tactical Operations Center--and Embassy Compound (EC), while supporting the transition to the New Embassy Compound (NEC). The NEC is projected to open between December 2028 and February 2029. Upon opening, life support services will shift to the NEC; however, limited services will continue at the RC and EC to ensure orderly decommissioning and facility closeout. This phased approach also allows the Government to plan and implement a full and open competition for long-term LSS at the NEC without operational disruption. The competition for the long-term LSS contract will begin in early-2027. The current contract period of performance is 1 June 2021 through 31 May 2026. The proposed extension period of performance is 1 June 2026 through 31 December 2028, for an estimated duration of 31 months at largely the full scope of services. If the NEC completion is delayed, the extension could continue through 28 February 2029, for a total of 33 months. Following this period, a reduced level of life support services is anticipated for an additional eight months (March 2029 October 2029) to complete final transition and facility closeout.
