Sources Sought Notice *= Required Field Sources Sought Notice Page 2 of 2 *= Required Field Sources Sought Notice Page 1 of 2 Introduction Network Contracting Office 20 (NCO20), supporting Boise VA Medical Center, is seeking potential sources for an upcoming requirement for a Construction Contractor that shall provide services to correct current storm water system deficiencies at the Boise, Idaho VA Medical Center (BVAMC) as described below. This notice is a market research tool and has not been set-aside for any small business category, however the notice is issued to determine appropriate set-aside categories. Responses to this notice, in conjunction with other Government market research resources, will be used by the contracting officer to determine the applicable socio-economic set-aside for the procurement. Failure to respond to this notice will not impact consideration of construction services companies (or joint ventures) which otherwise meet set-aside requirements and submit responses to the follow-up public announcement. Once the appropriate set-aside is determined, a separate public announcement requesting offers/proposals will be publicized on Contract Opportunities in accordance with FAR 36.213-2. General Project Description and NAICS The contractor shall provide all construction services to install new storm sewer lines, catch basins, sand traps, seepage bed, infiltration facilities, excavation, shoring, laying of new pipe, tie-ins to existing systems, excavation and removal of old seepage beds, installation of new seepage beds and infiltration systems, some concrete, asphalt paving, and associated mechanical and plumbing work. This requirement is being sought under North American Industry Classification System Code 237110 or possibly 236220. Any interested party who believe they can complete this requirement under these or any other NAICS codes are invited to respond and provide detail as to the NAICS they can compete this project under and a brief description as to the reasoning. Responses will be used to research which code in conjunction with other Government market research resources, will be used by the contracting officer to determine the NAICS code under which this project will be procured. Information Sought The Government requests a letter/email of interest (or similar document) with responses to the following: 1. State your business name (as it appears in SAM.gov ), office location where these services will be performed from, SAM UEI number, NAICS Code under which you will perform and socio-economic status of the firm (i.e. verified SDVOSB, WOSB, SB, large business). 2. Provide a brief narrative and list sample projects/references completed on your company s experience providing services similar to those described. 3. What would be the expected make-up of the company s team in terms of socio-economic categories and estimated percentage of work to be completed by your company and each subcontractor? If the procurement is set-aside for any category of small business, generally fifty percent of more of the work would need to be performed by the contractor or a similarly situated subcontractor in terms of percentage of cost. For instance, if set-aside for service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB), 50% or more of the contract would need to be performed by verified SDVOSBs no other small business categories would count towards the percentage. If set-aside for small business, 50% of the contract would be required to be performed by small businesses which would include performance by a verified SDVOSB because they are also a small business. If the procurement is not set-aside and reaches certain dollar thresholds, the Government would negotiate an acceptable subcontracting plan to utilize small business concerns. 4. A brief statement of overall interest in the project and capability of performing the work in conjunction with ongoing projects. 5. Any additional capabilities statements or other documentation that you feel will assist the Government in performing market research and determining the appropriate set-aside.
