https://www.va.gov https://www.va.gov rebecca.quilhot@va.gov The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA), Veteran Readiness and Employment Division Buffalo, NY has a requirement for Professional Organizer Services for a Chapter 31 veteran.

The applicable NAICS code for this procurement is 541611.

Your firm must be registered at SAM.gov under NAICS code 541611 as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business and are capable of providing these services either through GSA or Open Market. Offerors must provide a written statement with adequate assurance that per 13 CFR 125.6 they can meet the limitations on subcontracting, VAAR Clause 852.219-74. Per 13 CFR 125.6 (1), in the case of a contract for services (except construction), the [prime contractor] will not pay more than 50% of the amount paid by the government to it to firms that are not similarly situated. Any work that a similarly situated subcontractor further subcontracts will count towards the 50% subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. Since an independent contractor such as a “1099 employee” is considered a subcontractor then, each independent subcontractor needs to be registered in VIP as a Service-Disabled, Veteran Owned-Small Business (SDVOSB) to be considered as a similarly situated SDVOSB entity that does not count towards the limitations on subcontracting. If you are able to comply with the above, please forward an email with your firm’s name, a point of contact, and firm DUNS number to: rebecca.quilhot@va.gov. In your response, please state if your firm has any experience providing and monitoring these types of services. Contractor will not only be responsible for overseeing these services, but also shall provide any/all associated costs such as waste removal, cleaning services etc.
