Upon the basis of the following determination and findings, it is proposed that the services described below be procured as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) Set Aside, pursuant to FAR Part 19.1405 Service-disabled veteran-owned small business set-aside procedures.

FINDINGS

The Network 10 Contracting Office intends to solicit and award a firm-fixed priced contract for the removal and replacement of shaft seals and motor bearings in Chiller # 1 of the John D.

This solicitation will be announced to Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) on or around June 4, 2021 as a SDVOSB Set Aside.

Market research has indicated that there are at least two SDVOSB businesses in Michigan that can provide the troubleshooting and replacement of the Chiller parts needed to meet the VA need. A VetBiz Search (https://vetbiz.va.gov/vip/) was conducted using NAICS Code 238220 using keyword “Chiller” which returned 33 SD/VOSB results.

Based on market research, the CO has a reasonable expectation that offers will be received from at least two capable SD/VOSB concerns, and, the CO has a reasonable expectation that award can be made at a fair and reasonable price offering best value from capable SD/VOSB concerns.

The VA Rule of Two has been met for this requirement.
