Contract to sustain the Miniature Air-Launched Decoy (MALD)/Miniature Air-Launched Decoy-Jammer (MALD-J) Missile systems. Contract was not awarded competitivley, as the activity obtained authority to acquire the Contractor Logistics Support (CLS) services using Other Than Full and Open Competition as prescribed by FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. This action will not apply fixed-price, as a cost- plus fixed fee contract (CPFF) for services was determined the best contract type for the services because uncertainties involved in contract performance do not permit costs to be estimated with sufficient accuracy to use any type of fixed-price contract. Cost reimbursement (CR) with no fee items for travel CLINs is considered appropriate due to the uncertainties in future requirements.
