36C24225D0044- APPROVED JA FOR OFOC- SHORT-TERM COMMUNITY BASED OUTPATIENT CLINIC CONTRACT- AUBURN CBOC.pdf

This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) document for other than full and open competition from the Department of Veterans Affairs for Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC) services in Auburn, NY. The document requests approval for a six-month fixed-price IDIQ contract to STG International, Inc. (the incumbent) from February 1, 2025 to July 31, 2025, with an estimated value of $1,776,576.

The CBOC provides primary care services, telehealth, and mental health services to approximately 1,350 veterans in Cayuga County who cannot travel to the Syracuse VA Medical Center. The short-term contract is needed because the current contract expires January 31, 2025, and additional time is required for the long-term procurement process. A new long-term RFP (36C24224R0049) was posted on October 17, 2024 with anticipated award by March 21, 2025. The procurement requires a 120-day transition period and historically faces protests. Two other companies - Valor Healthcare, Inc. (large business) and Primary Care Solutions (SDVOSB) - have expressed interest in the long-term contract. The NAICS code is 621498 with a size standard of $25.5 million.
