About this file
This is Amendment 0008 to Solicitation 36C24426R0021 for Wheelchair Van Transportation Service at Altoona VAMC, issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 4 in Coatesville, Pennsylvania. The amendment withdraws four small business set-aside tiers from the competition due to insufficient qualified vendors and evaluation concerns. Specifically, the Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) tier is being withdrawn because evaluated vendors received "Limited Confidence" ratings, with vendors failing to provide adequate documentation regarding fleet, dispatch, and staffing capabilities necessary to execute the requirement at the required scale and complexity. Additionally, the Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB), HUBZone/8(a), and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) tiers are being withdrawn due to zero submissions received in response to the solicitation, making evaluation impossible within those categories.
The amendment directs that evaluation proceed to the next tier, Small Business concerns, in accordance with Veterans Affairs Acquisition Regulation (VAAR) 815.101-370 and VA Procurement Policy Memorandum (PPM) 2018-04. The withdrawal determination reflects the Government's assessment that award cannot be made within the SDVOSB tier at an acceptable level of performance risk, and no alternative VOSB, HUBZone/8(a), or WOSB offers were available for consideration. Offerors are required to acknowledge receipt of this amendment prior to the deadline specified in the solicitation, either by completing and returning the amendment document, acknowledging receipt on each offer copy, or submitting separate written communication referencing the solicitation and amendment numbers.

The purpose of this amendment is to Withdraw from the following tiers:
- withdrawal from SDVOSB as there were vendors who were evaluated and were rated Limited Confidence as they did not receive any Past Performance Questionnaires from evaluators. The absence of supporting details regarding fleet, dispatch, or staffing further prevents having confidence that they planned for or could execute at this scale and complexity.
- withdrawal from VOSB, HUBZone/8a, and WOSB tiers as there were zero vendors who submitted in response to this solicitation. Accordingly, the Government is unable to evaluate award within the VOSB, HUBZone/8a, and WOSB tiers and is withdrawing the VOSB, HUBZone/8a, and WOSB set-aside on this basis, in accordance with VAAR 815.101-370 and VA PPM 2018-04.
- It is determined that award cannot be made within the SDVOSB tier at level of performance risk the Government is willing to accept for this requirement, and no VOSB, HUBZone/8a, or WOSB offers were received to evaluate as an alternative. Withdrawing tiers SDVOSB, VOSB, HUBZone/8a, and WOSB set-asides for this solicitation and directing that evaluation proceed to the next tier, Small Business concerns, is consistent with VAAR 815.101-370 and VA PPM 2018-04.
