PURPOSE

The purpose of this Special Notice is to announce the VA’s decision to cancel award number VA26215C0046 and re-solicit the services under solicitation number VA26215Q0529.

BACKGROUND

VetPride Services, Inc., a Service Disabled Veteran Owned (SDVOB), protested the award to In and Out Valet Company under solicitation No. VA26215Q0529, which was issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for valet parking services for the VA San Diego Healthcare System. VetPride Services challenged the VA’s determination that its offer was non-responsive due its failure to provide resumes for key personnel. Subsequent to the filing of this protest, the VA notified the Government Accountability Office (GAO) of its intent to take corrective action by canceling the award and re-soliciting the services.

ANNOUNCEMENT

In order to afford all offerors equal opportunity to observe the physical characteristics of the job site, a one-time Site Visit will take place on Thursday February 18, 2016 at 7:30 a.m. Pacific Standard Time. Offerors shall meet at the main entrance lobby of VASDHS, La Jolla campus, located at 3350 La Jolla Village Drive, San Diego, CA 92161.

All interested parties are directed to visit solicitation number VA26215Q0529 located at www.fbo.gov and review the amendment to the solicitation (re-solicitation) scheduled to be posted on approximately February 12, 2016 for more details.
