September 23, 2024: In order to finalize the evaluation and award process for all OASIS+ solicitations, GSA is notifying offerors of a request for offer extension through April 20, 2025. This action is only applicable to existing offerors that submitted timely OASIS+ proposal(s) by October 20, 2023. 

To facilitate this request, GSA has provided a fillable template letter which can be used to acknowledge this request and formally extend an offeror’s proposal validity period (i.e. offer expiration date). A single offer extension letter may be submitted for ALL OASIS+ proposals submitted by an Offeror.

To extend an Offeror’s OASIS+ proposal(s) validity, offerors must take the following actions:

• Complete, sign, and submit the offer extension letter through the OASIS+ Submission Portal (OSP/Symphony) no later than 4:00 PM ET on October 8, 2024. 

The instructions to upload the letter to the OSP can be found in the “Links” section within this SAM.gov posting and is also included below:

• https://industrysupport.apexlogic.com/support/solutions/articles/35000258379-acknowledging-the-oasis-proposal-extension

Note: Offerors are encouraged to use the provided template letter posted on SAM.gov to extend the proposal validity date. Offerors can also use a different format, such as a letter on company letterhead, as long as it clearly states that the offeror agrees to extend the offer expiration date for all submitted OASIS+ proposals through April 20, 2025 without conditions.

Offerors that do not respond and extend their proposal validity period will not be eligible for award if award is made after the current proposal expiration date (October 19, 2024). GSA cannot accept an expired offer to form a binding contract.

Any OSP specific system-related issues should be sent directly to: client.support@apexlogic.com.

Formal awards and notices to proceed (NTPs) for the HUBZone, SDVOSB, and WOSB contracts are anticipated to be sent to award recipients as early as September 30, 2024. The formal award and NTP milestone will mark the beginning of a five-year base period of performance (PoP), and, if exercised, one five-year option period.

Phase I apparent awardees are reminded to ensure that their SAM.gov entity information is active, accurate, and complete as final responsibility reviews are required prior to award in accordance with FAR 9.104.

Rolling Awards: This is only the first round of award notifications for these three socioeconomic set-asides. Not all offerors who submitted proposals in response to solicitation numbers 47QRCA23R0003, 47QRCA23R0004, and 47QRCA23R0005 will receive notification of their evaluation outcome at this time. GSA anticipates making awards on a rolling basis in accordance with the solicitation. This means we plan to announce and make awards in phases as they are finalized, and will continue to evaluate the remaining proposals. If you have not received notification of award in this phase, please know that your proposal is still under consideration, and you will be notified at a later phase.
