Introduction
Network Contracting Office 1 (NCO 1), supporting VA New England Healthcare System (VISN 1) and VA Central Western Massachusetts Healthcare System (HCS) is seeking potential sources for an upcoming requirement for Architect and Engineering Services as described in the attached statement of work. THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATION STATEMENTS (SF330). 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 architect and engineer firms (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 qualification statements (SF330s) will be publicized on Contract Opportunities in accordance with 40 U.S. Code § 1101 and FAR 36.601.
General Project Description and NAICS

Boland campus of the Central Western Massachusetts Healthcare System.

Information Sought
The Government requests a letter of interest (or similar document) with responses to the following:
1. State your firm name (as it appears in SAM.gov), firm office location where these services will be performed from, UEI, and socio-economic status of the firm (i.e., verified SDVOSB, WOSB, SB, large business).
What would be the expected make-up of the firm s team in terms of socio-economic categories and estimated percentage of work to be completed by your firm 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.
A brief statement of overall interest in the project and capability of performing the work in conjunction with ongoing projects.
A brief statement showing experience with Laboratory/Radiology design and renovations.
Experience with The Commonwealth of Massachusetts State Historical Preservation Office and preparing Section 106 Reports. Describe any design experience in renovating and expanding historical buildings.
Any additional capabilities statements or other documentation that you feel will assist the Government in performing market research and determining the appropriate set-aside.
