§1107 — Title 14 Coast Guard | U.S. Code

Summary

The Secretary may extend an existing Coast Guard major acquisition contract to buy extra units without a new competition, but only if the Director of the Cost Analysis Division at the Department of Homeland Security finds that the money saved by making a new contract would not be more than the cost of doing that new award. The number of extra units bought can’t exceed the number the Director reviewed. At the Secretary’s request, the Director must figure the savings from a new contract for the stated number of units and the full costs of making a new award, including costs from schedule delays and design changes. A contract can be extended more than once.
