C.3 VAAR 852.219-10 VA NOTICE OF TOTAL SERVICE-DISABLED

VETERAN-OWNED SMALL BUSINESS SET-ASIDE (JUL 2019) (DEVIATION)

(a) Definition. For the Department of Veterans Affairs, “Service-disabled veteran owned small business concern or SDVOSB”:

(1) Means a small business concern:

(i) Not less than 51 percent of which is owned by one or more service-disabled veterans or, in the case of any publicly owned business, not less than 51 percent of the stock of which is owned by one or more service-disabled Veterans or eligible surviving spouses (see VAAR

802.101, Surviving Spouse definition);

(ii) The management and daily business operations of which are controlled by one or more service-disabled Veterans (or eligible surviving spouses) or, in the case of a service-disabled

Veteran with permanent and severe disability, the spouse or permanent caregiver of such

Veteran;

(iii) The business meets Federal small business size standards for the applicable North

American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code identified in the solicitation document;

(iv) The business has been verified for ownership and control pursuant to 38 CFR part 74 and is so listed in the Vendor Information Pages (VIP) database (https://www.vip.vetbiz.va.gov);

and

(v) The business will comply with VAAR subpart 819.70 and Small Business Administration

(SBA) regulations regarding small business size and government contracting programs at 13

CFR part 121 and 125, including the nonmanufacturer rule and limitations on subcontracting requirements in 13 CFR 121.406 and 125.6, provided that any reference therein to a service-disabled veteran-owned small business concern (SDVO SBC), is to be construed to apply to a

VA verified and VIP-listed SDVOSB. The nonmanufacturer rule and the limitations on subcontracting apply to all SDVOSB and VOSB set-asides and sole source contracts.

(2) “Service-disabled Veteran” means a Veteran, as defined in 38 U.S.C. 101(2), with a disability that is service-connected, as defined in 38 U.S.C. 101(16).

(b) General.

(https:/www.vip.vetbiz.va.gov)

(1) Offers are solicited only from eligible service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns. Only VIP-listed service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns (SDVOSBs) may submit offers in response to this solicitation. Offers received from concerns that are not

VIP-listed service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns shall not be considered.

(2) Any award resulting from this solicitation shall be made to a VIP-listed service-disabled veteran-owned small business concern that meets the size standard for the applicable NAICS code.

(c) Representation. By submitting an offer, the prospective contractor represents that it is an eligible SDVOSB as defined in this clause, 38 CFR part 74, and VAAR subpart 819.70.

Pursuant to 38 U.S.C. 8127(e), only VIP-listed SDVOSBs are considered eligible. Therefore, any reference in 13 CFR part 121 and 125 to a servicedisabled veteran-owned small business concern (SDVO SBC), is to be construed to apply to a VA verified and VIP-listed SDVOSB and only such concern(s) qualify as similarly situated. The offeror must also be eligible at the time of award.

(d) Agreement. Agreement. When awarded a contract (see FAR 2.101, Definitions), including orders under multiple-award contracts, or a subcontract, an SDVOSB agrees that in the performance of the contract, the SDVOSB shall comply with requirements in VAAR subpart

819.70 and SBA regulations on small business size and government contracting programs at 13

CFR part 121 and 125, including the nonmanufacturer rule and limitations on subcontracting requirements in 13 CFR part 121.406 and 125.6, provided that for purposes of the limitations on subcontracting, only VIP-listed SDVOSBs shall be considered eligible and/or “similarly situated”

(i.e., a firm that has the same small business program status as the prime contractor). An independent contractor shall be considered a subcontractor. An otherwise eligible firm further agrees to the following:

(1) Services. In the case of a contract for services (except construction), it will not pay more than 50% of the amount paid by the government to it to firms that are not VIP-listed SDVOSBs.

(2) Supplies or products.

(i) In the case of a contract for supplies or products (other than from a nonmanufacturer of such supplies), it will not pay more than 50% of the amount paid by the government to it to firms that are not VIP-listed SDVOSBs.

(ii) In the case of a contract for supplies from a nonmanufacturer, it will supply the product of a domestic small business manufacturer or processor, unless a waiver as described in 13 CFR

121.406(b)(5) is granted.

(3) General construction. In the case of a contract for general construction, it will not pay more than 85% of the amount paid by the government to it to firms that are not VIP-listed

SDVOSBs.

(4) Special trade contractors. In the case of a contract for special trade contractors, it will not pay more than 75% of the amount paid by the government to it to firms that are not VIP-listed

SDVOSBs.

(5) Subcontracting. Any work that a VIP-listed SDVOSB subcontractor further subcontracts will count towards the percent of subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. For supply or construction contracts, cost of materials is excluded and not considered to be subcontracted.

For mixed contracts and additional limitations, refer to 13 CFR 125.6.

(e) Joint ventures. A joint venture may be considered an SDVOSB if the joint venture is listed in VIP and complies with the requirements in 13 CFR 125.18(b), provided that any reference therein to service-disabled veteran-owned small business concern or SDVO SBC, is to be construed to mean a VIP-listed SDVOSB. A joint venture agrees that, in the performance of the contract, the applicable percentage specified in paragraph (d) of this clause will be performed by the aggregate of the joint venture participants.

(f) Precedence. For any inconsistencies between the requirements of the SBA program for service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns and the VA Veterans First Contracting

Program, as defined in VAAR subpart 819.70 and this clause, the VA Veterans First Contracting

Program requirements have precedence.

(End of Clause)

C.4 VAAR 852.232-72 ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION OF PAYMENT

(5) Payment request means any request for contract financing payment or invoice payment submitted by the contractor under this contract.

(b) Electronic payment requests. Except as provided in paragraph (e) of this clause, the contractor shall submit payment requests in electronic form. Purchases paid with a

(c) Data transmission. A contractor must ensure that the data transmission method and format are through one of the following:

(1) VA’s Electronic Invoice Presentment and Payment System at the current website address provided in the contract.

(2) Any system that conforms to the X12 electronic data interchange (EDI) formats established by the Accredited Standards Center (ASC) and chartered by the American National

(e) Exceptions. If, based on one of the circumstances in this paragraph (e), the Contracting

Officer directs that payment requests be made by mail, the Contractor shall submit payment requests by mail through the United States Postal Service to the designated agency office.

Submission of payment requests by mail may be required for—

(1) Awards made to foreign vendors for work performed outside the United States;

(2) Classified contracts or purchases when electronic submission and processing of payment requests could compromise the safeguarding of classified or privacy information;

(3) Contracts awarded by contracting officers in the conduct of emergency operations, such as responses to national emergencies;

(4) Solicitations or contracts in which the designated agency office is a VA entity other than the VA Financial Services Center in Austin, Texas; or

2. TECHNICAL OFFER

a. Company Cover letter with introduction to your company

b. Provide Factor 1: Price: Price will be evaluated for reasonableness and realism.

Unrealistically high or low proposed costs or prices, initially or subsequently, may be grounds for eliminating an offeror from competition either on the basis that the offeror does not understand the requirement or has submitted an unrealistic offer. Additionally, mailto:michael.simington@va.gov mailto:michael.simington@va.gov https://www.sam.gov/portal/public/SAM/ unbalanced pricing poses an unacceptable risk to the Government and may be reason to reject an offer. The burden of proof for credibility of proposed costs/prices rests with the offeror.

c. Factor 2: Technical Capability- Offerors are required to meet all solicitation requirements, such as terms, conditions, representations and certifications, and technical requirements, in addition to evaluations factors and/or sub-factors if applicable. Offerors other than the OEM shall include OEM approval to service and maintain equipment listed and provide evidence of OEM part distribution approval to show they are an authorized parts and service provider of equipment listed in this requirement.

d. Factor 3: Past Performance – Past performance information must be submitted on no more than three recent contracts (within the last three (3) years) that you consider most relevant in demonstrating your ability to perform the proposed effort. Specifically, prior experience in maintaining or servicing equipment listed in the Statement of Work. Past performance must be similar in nature and scope.

3. SELECTION CRITERIA:

1. The Government intends to make award without discussions. However, it may be determined necessary to conduct discussions if award cannot be made on the initial proposals submitted.

2. Contract award will be made based on both price and technical considerations most advantageous to the Government IAW FAR Part 13. The Government will evaluate offers to determine technical acceptability and lowest overall price and price related factors.

All documents must be scanned and emailed before the closing date and time in the solicitation.

No other submission formats will be accepted. Due to limitations on our email server, please limit your file size to 10mb or under. You may split your submissions up and submit more than one email.
