DESCRIPTION

Pre-solicitation Notice of Intent to Sole Source Pre-Solicitation Notice of intent to award a sole source contract. This is not a solicitation. The Department of Veterans Affairs intends to negotiate a sole source contract with William Pevear Architects located at 872 Massachusetts Ave, Suite 2-9, Cambridge, MA, 02139. Their Unique Identifier is DXAGU7K2KEK1

The Brockton Medical Center Facilities Projects team is initiating the construction of the Patient Safety Phase 2 project 523A5-07-123. This requirement is to contract to William Pevear Architects who serves as the Architect/Engineer (A/E) Designer of Record to provide Construction Period Services (CPS) for the project. These services were previously awarded to the A/E Designer of Record but were descoped due to expired funding for construction. The proposed action is to provide follow on CPS during the construction phase of the project.

Construction Period Services are to include, but are not limited to, review and approval of construction submittals, samples, shop drawings, schedules, phasing plans; response to Request for Information (RFI); change order review and recommendations; preparation of cost estimates to Request for Proposal (RFP); cost/time/impact estimates and recommendations relevant to apparent construction plan deviations; site visits as required and/or requested by the VA Contracting Officer and Project Engineer for inspection of ongoing construction including final tests and inspections; documentation of all necessary site visits to the VA Contracting Officer and Project Engineer within one (1) week after the visit; verification and preparation of as-built drawings from contractor supplied marked up prints (one set of full size mylars, 3 sets of reduced scale vellums, and two sets of separate CD-R disks) which the VA will retain permanently.

Because William Pevear Architects is the only vendor/contractor that can provide CPS as the A/E Designer of Record, this acquisition will not be competed. Since the intent is to procure this on a sole source basis, no solicitation will be posted to Contracting Opportunities on SAM.gov.

The NAICS is 541330. The size standard is $25.5M. The PSC/FSC is C1DA.

The period of performance for this requirement is 590 calendar days to align with construction.

Justification for Single Source Award is attached to this notice.

Interested persons may contact the Contract Specialist by email at Alexis.Duda@va.gov regarding this procurement. The determination to conduct a competitive procurement based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer.

Responses are due by 2:00PM EST on 02/03/2023.
