This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotations and technical statements/documents are being requested, and a written solicitation document will not be issued. The Government reserves the right to make no award from this solicitation. This solicitation is a request for quotations (RFQ).

The Government intends to award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation and limitations of subcontracting will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers quote, conforming to the solicitation, whose quoted price does not exceed the amount of funding available for the procurement, and whose quoted price is found to be reasonable. Price alone is not the sole evaluation factor. In addition to the general standards of responsibility found at FAR 9.104-1, in accordance with FAR 9.104-2, the special standards of responsibility described below apply to this procurement. Offerors who fail to meet any special standard of responsibility will not be eligible to receive contract award. General Standards of Responsibility To assist the contracting officer in determining if the general standards of responsibility applicable to this procurement are met, offerors shall provide a narrative with their quotes confirming that they understand/ If the offeror s proposal intends to utilize subcontractor(s), then the narrative must include a breakdown of what portions will be completed by the offeror and their proposed subcontractor(s). Failure to include this information could result in a contracting officer s determination that an otherwise successful offeror is not eligible for contract award. Special Standards of Responsibility (SSR) To assist the contracting officer in determining if the special standards of responsibility applicable to this procurement are met, offerors are asked to provide the following information with their quotes all within the limitations of subcontracting. Failure to include this information could result in a contracting officer s determination that an otherwise successful offeror is not eligible for contract award. SP1 Contractor s Firm s Specialized Certifications.

Quotes will be evaluated in the following manner. The lowest-priced quote will be identified. The lowest-priced quote will be evaluated to determine if the quoted price exceeds the amount of funding available for the procurement. If the quoted price does not exceed the amount of funding available for the procurement, the quoted price will be evaluated to determine if it is reasonable. If the quoted price is found to be reasonable, the contracting officer will then determine if the offeror is responsible using the general standards of responsibility and the special standards of responsibilities (SSRs) applicable to this procurement. If contract award cannot be made to the offeror, the contracting officer will evaluate the next lowest-priced quote following the procedures described above. This process will continue until a contract award can be made, or the contracting officer determines that no contract award can be made. The contracting officer may likewise find all quotes, not acceptable and cancel the solicitation if the quotes under evaluation exceeds the amount of funding available and/or technical documents do not meet the SOW and SSRs for the procurement. Technical documents and past performance, when combined, are more important than price, in accordance with FAR 15.304, the relative importance of all other evaluation factors. The Government intends to evaluate quotes and technical documents to award a contract without discussions with offerors. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions at any time if determined by the contracting officer to be in the Government s interest. All solicitation questions shall be emailed to John Cheng, Contract Specialist, e-mail: john.cheng2@va.gov.

Submission shall be received not later than 12:00pm MDT on May 31, 2023. Late submissions will not be accepted. Only e-mailed quotes will be accepted. It is the responsibility of the vendor to ensure the Governments timely receipt of their quote. For offerors who want more time for the close, the date and time will not be extended because this is an open market competitive SDVOSB Set-Aside. A vendor who is planning to perform the service with their own equipment and own employees, would not have an issue providing a quote in the allotted time frame. Those who plan on subcontracting out the majority or 100% of the service may submit their quotes, but they would need to meet the limitations of subcontracting and the close date and time will not be extended. Please submit your best offer. After quotes are submitted there is no re-negotiation on pricing after the close of the solicitation.
