ATT 1 sole source Justification_Redacted.pdf

This is a justification for a sole source contract award. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 16 is seeking to award a sole source contract to an unnamed contractor for nursing and rehabilitation services at the St. Bernard Nursing and Rehabilitation facility. The justification cites that the proposed contractor is the incumbent provider with existing staff and resources in place to ensure continuity of care for veterans. No other vendors can satisfy the requirement to seamlessly transition services by the required date of August 1, 2023. The justification provides background on the services currently provided and performance reviews of the incumbent to demonstrate they are the only responsible source able to meet the government's needs without disruption to veterans receiving long-term care.
