As a process clarification, it is my understanding that either the
extension occurs or a re-bid occurs, and that the recommendations on that
point come early in order to allow for either one to occur.  Extending the
existing contract after bids have been received is not one of the described
possibilities, so any bid by the incumbent would be based on a new RFP.
As a former contracting officer, I am sure you understand that an incumbent
bidding for a contract after a new RFP is extremely common.
