About this file

This document is a Single Source Justification (SSJ) for Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT) for janitorial services at the Evanston, IL Community-Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC) operated by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), VISN 12.

The VA is awarding a firm-fixed price contract to Modesto Management LLC, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), to provide janitorial services at the Evanston CBOC for the period of April 29, 2024 through March 31, 2025. The estimated contract value is $136,232.52. The justification for a single-source award is that the previous janitorial services were provided through the building lease, which was terminated, leaving the CBOC without those critical services. The VA determined the SDVOSB vendor market for janitorial services is robust and competitive, and this will be a short-term single-source contract until the next full and open competition can be conducted on an SDVOSB set-aside basis.

VHAPG Part 813.106 Simplified Acquisition Procedures: Soliciting from a Single Source Attachment 1: Single Source Justification for SAP under the SAT

Last Updated: 02/01/22 Page 1 of 1

DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS

Justification for Single Source Awards IAW FAR 13.106-1 For

Over Micro-Purchase Threshold but Not Exceeding the SAT ($250K)

Acquisition Plan Action ID: 36C252-24-AP-2642

1. Contracting Activity: Department of Veterans Affairs, VISN 12, Evanston, IL CBOC (Captain James A.

Lovell FHCC). 2237 # 556-24-3-5001-0280

2. Brief Description of Supplies/ Services required and the intended use/Estimated Amount:

Janitorial Services required at the Evanston, IL CBOC. Estimated amount of $136,232.52.

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

Evanston CBOC previously contracted janitorial services via the leaser of the building which they occupy. The janitorial services portion of the lease was cancelled/terminated which will leave the CBOC without janitorial services effective May 1, 2024. As janitorial services are integral to patient safety, the government is entering into a single-source contract with Modesto Management LLC, a certified SDVOSB, to provide these services in accordance with VAAR 719.7008.

4. Description of market research conducted and results or statement why it was not conducted:

Market research shows that the SDVOSB vendor market for janitorial services is robust and competitive as proven by market research analysis and the CS/CO’s previous experience in procuring these services. It is anticipated that after this short-term single-source contract expires, the replacing contract will be solicitaed on an SDVOSB set-aside basis.

5. Contracting Officer's Certification: Purchase is approved in accordance with FAR13.106-1(b). I certify that the foregoing justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief. Based on copmparison of price for similar services at other CBOCs, price is determined to be fair and reasonable and will be documented on S19 Determination and Finding document.
