About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Benefits Administration has issued a Sources Sought notice to identify potential vendors capable of providing furniture and equipment for a veterans' self-employment plan at the Cleveland Regional Office in Ohio. The procurement includes approximately 70 distinct items such as RPG game tables, IKEA furniture (KALLAX shelving units, BRIMNES cabinets, chairs), iPads, printer, laptop, filing cabinets, lockers, slat walls, and message boards, classified under NAICS code 337214 with a size standard of 1,100 employees. This market research initiative aims to help the Contracting Officer review the market base for acquisition planning, size determination, and procurement strategy. Interested parties must submit responses electronically to raymond.tracey@va.gov by 1:00 PM EST on August 11, 2025, with submissions limited to 8 pages in Microsoft Word or PDF format. The notice explicitly states that no evaluation criteria will be applied, no feedback will be provided to respondents, and this is strictly for market research purposes with no contract awards resulting from this announcement.

The opportunity does not specify any set-aside designation in the main description, though the government file summary indicates it may be set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB). No incumbent contractors or current service providers are identified in the documentation. The notice does not provide specific award values, budget ranges, or contract duration timelines, as this is solely a market research exercise to gauge industry capabilities and interest. The equipment list encompasses diverse categories from office furniture to recreational gaming equipment and technology items, suggesting a comprehensive setup for a veteran entrepreneur support facility. Delivery location is specified as the Veterans Benefits Administration Cleveland Regional Office at 1240 E. 9th Street, Cleveland, Ohio, with the actual veteran's address to be communicated only to the eventual contract awardee.
