About this file

This is a Single Source Justification for a federal contract award under the Department of Veterans Affairs' Simplified Acquisition Procedures for purchases exceeding the Micro-Purchase Threshold but not exceeding the Simplified Acquisition Threshold.

The Department of Veterans Affairs, NCO 16, Jackson MS Medical Center is seeking to award a sole-source contract to GEO Bancroft Engineering LLC for engineering and architect support services during a construction project. Specifically, the acquisition adds a Construction Period of Service (CPS) phase that was included in the original Statement of Work and award but could not be funded at the initial time of contract closure following design acceptance. The contracting officer determined that sole-sourcing to the original designer is in the government's best interest because requiring another firm to redesign or review and adjust the existing plans would result in significant cost duplication without providing organizational benefit. Market research with other Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) architectural firms confirmed that additional costs to transition to an alternative designer would be substantial. The current SDVOSB status of GEO Bancroft Engineering LLC remains valid and on file. The justification has been approved by the Contracting Officer, Andrew Misfeldt, on June 22, 2026, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b). The Acquisition Plan Action ID is 36C256-26-AP-2092.

VHAPG Part 813.106 Simplified Acquisition Procedures: Soliciting from a Single Source Single Source Justification for MPT up to SAT

Revision: 02 Effective Date: 12/30/2025 Page 1 of 1 Acquisition ID#36C256-26-AP-2092

DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS

Justification for Single Source Awards IAW FAR 13.106-1 For

Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the Simplified Acquisition Threshold

Acquisition Plan Action ID:36C256-26-AP-2092

1. Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, NCO 16, Jackscon MS

Medical Center.

2. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount: The station needs to add a construction period of service CPS to have engineering and architect support during the construction project. It was in the original SOW and award, but the funding was not available to award at the time. The contract has been closed when the design was accepted by the station.

3. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used:

GEO Bancroft Engineering LLC did the initial design, and it would be a major increase in cost to have another firm do a redesign and provide CPS services for the Department of Veterans Affairs. To prevent cost duplication that would not bring any benefit to the organization an award to GEO Bancroft is recommended.

4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted: Other SDVOSB Architectural firms estimated that it would be a significant increase in costs to review and adjust another firms plans to provide CPS.

The current SDVOSB is still valid and on file to it was determined to be in the best interest of the government to sole source this additional requirement to the original designer.

5. Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR

13.106-1(b). I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.
