All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. Supporting evidence must be furnished in sufficient detail to demonstrate the ability to comply with the requirement. If no responses are received, the government will proceed with the Sole Source acquisition. The Government will not pay for information submitted. This will be the only notice of the Government's intent to solicit, negotiate, and award to one source to satisfy this requirement. The Government plans to award a contract for this requirement on 9/16/2019. Written comments or questions regarding this notice must be received by the Contracting Specialist by email at Michael.gamby@va.gov no later than 1200 EST, 9/15/2018.
