What this opportunity is
The Department of Veterans Affairs intends to enter into a sole-source contract for dental water testing services at the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center and Milo C. Huempfner VA Healthcare Center, specifically with HGS Engineering, Inc., a verified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB). This opportunity is suitable for SDVOSBs, as the procurement is being conducted under the authority allowing for non-competitive procedures due to the specific qualifications of the contractor. Note that this is a special notice, indicating that it is not a request for competitive quotes, so interested businesses should monitor for future opportunities rather than submit bids.
Analysis by Mindy, grounded in the SAM.gov notice.
Description
Under Statutory Authority Public Law 109 Sec. 502 and VAAR 819.7008, the Government anticipates entering into a sole-source procurement with HGS ENGINEERING, INC., a certified/verified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB).
A determination that only one SDVOSB can meet the requirement is not required. This notice is not a request for competitive quotes. This award is in compliance with VAAR 819.7008:
(a) A contracting officer may award a contract to a SBA-listed/verified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) using other than competitive procedures provided - (1) The anticipated award price of the contract (including options) will not exceed $5 million; (2) The requirement is synopsized and the required justification pursuant to FAR 6.302- 5(c)(2)(ii) is posted in accordance with FAR part 5; (3) The SDVOSB has been determined to be a responsible contractor with respect to performance; and (4) In the estimation of the contracting officer contract award can be made at a fair and reasonable price that offers best value to the Government.
(b) The contracting officer's determination to make a sole source award is a business decision wholly within the discretion of the contracting officer. To ensure that opportunities are available to the broadest number of SDVOSBs, this authority is to be used only when in the best interest of the Government.
(c) A determination that only one SDVOSB can meet the requirement is not required. However, in accordance with FAR 6.302-5(c)(2)(ii), contracts awarded using this authority shall be supported by a written justification and approval described in FAR 6.303 and 6.304, as applicable.
(d) When conducting a SDVOSB sole source acquisition, the contracting officer shall ensure the business meets eligibility requirements in 819.7003.
