The IDC has a ceiling value of $696,728.31 and a period of performance from August 1, 2023, to July 31, 2028. Under this contract, VHA VISN 9 can issue firm-fixed-price delivery orders to obtain the required nursing home services as needed to support the VA's mission of caring for veterans. The contracts do not utilize any set-aside designations, indicating that Ave Maria Home competes for these awards in an open market. Recent delivery orders issued under the IDC have ranged from $43,386.90 to $269,805.00, demonstrating the ongoing need for Ave Maria Home's services in the VISN 9 region. The services provided under these contracts include long-term, residential nursing home care delivered at Ave Maria Home's facilities in Bartlett, Tennessee.
The contract awards to Ave Maria Home are part of the VA's efforts to ensure that veterans receive high-quality nursing home care. By leveraging an IDC, VHA VISN 9 can efficiently procure these services as needed over the five-year period, streamlining the acquisition process and ensuring a reliable source of nursing home care for veterans in the region. The non-profit status of Ave Maria Home and its established partnership with the VA suggest that the organization is well-equipped to deliver the required nursing home services to support the VA's mission.
