Vendor Questions and Answers:

Q.1 Is there any incumbent/recompete or this is a brand-new project? If yes, could you please provide us with their award number or even if the customer bought similar services in the past.

A.1 There is no incumbent.

Q.2 Want to bring to your attention a conflict of clauses 2.3 and 4.3 for your consideration to adjudicate. In a government non-personnel services contract, a contractor cannot supervise VA employees.

A.2 Section 4.3 and corresponding subparts are hereby removed from the Performance Work Statement (PWS) and replaced with the following language:

4.3 Interactions with Health Professions Trainees (HPTS): When a Health Professions Trainee (HPT), typically a General Surgery resident, participates in a surgical case alongside a contracted physician surgeon, the contracted physician surgeon must fulfill several responsibilities related to the trainee's involvement. These duties include, but are not limited to:

• Cosigning notes associated with the surgical case

• Documenting the residents’ encounters during the procedure

• Adding addenda to notes when clarifications are required

• Ensuring agreement with the residents’ documentation

Contracted physician surgeons are not required to provide an independent evaluation of the trainees. However, the General Surgery Section Chief may seek input from contracted physician surgeons during the evaluation process if deemed necessary.

Q.3 Volume 4 – Socioeconomic Status, Page 8 – requires Attachment D.6. Can the government confirm if D.6 is VAAR 852.219-75 filled out or is there a separate attachment. If a separate attachment, when will the government be publishing that Attachment?

A.3 Attachment D.6 VA Notice of Limitation on Subcontracting-Certificate of Compliance for Services and Construction (JAN 2023) (DEVIATION) is hereby incorporated into the solicitation to be completed and submitted by offerors seeking to receive credit under VAAR 852.215-70 as an SDVOSB or as a VOSB. See attached document: S02 - Attachment D.6 - VA Notice of Limitation on Subcontracting.
