About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 16 posted a sole-source justification and approval notice on September 15, 2026 for contract 36C25626D0083, a bridge nursing services award to Solvet Services, LLC for the Southeast Louisiana Veterans Health Care System in New Orleans through March 31, 2027.
The Southeast Louisiana Veterans Health Care System requires immediate nursing services on a sole-source basis under FAR 6.302-1 (only one responsible source) because Solvet's nursing staff is already credentialed at the facility; other contractors would require an average of 30 days for credentialing, creating an unacceptable gap in veteran healthcare. The requirement covers an estimated 25 Registered Nurses (Med/Surg/CLC/Wound Care), 15 RN Specialty positions, 4 Licensed Practical Nurses, and 18 Certified Nursing Assistants for weekends, holidays, evenings, and night shifts. The total estimated contract value is $4,703,220. Solvet Services, LLC is a certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB, UEI WWX8RCMUFVA3). Market research confirmed Solvet's pricing is fair and reasonable, matching GSA Schedule rates with no increases. The bridge contract permits time for a competitive 5-year follow-on contract to be awarded after a prior protest was resolved. The justification must be made publicly available within 14 days after contract award per 10 U.S.C. 3204(f) and 41 U.S.C. 3304(f).
