About this opportunity
The Bureau of Reclamation has issued a Special Notice for a sole source procurement with Veritas Visioneering Inc. to facilitate strategic planning for the Lahontan Basin Area Office (LBAO). The agency intends to negotiate a contract for facilitated working sessions to update the LBAO's 5-year strategic plan, which is set to expire in 2025. This procurement will be conducted under FAR Part 13.106-1(b)(1), with a planned award date of February 3, 2025. The notice provides an opportunity for other firms to challenge the sole source designation by submitting written notifications demonstrating their capability to meet the requirements. The contract falls under NAICS Code 541611 for Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services.
Contractors interested in responding to this notice must submit their information within 7 calendar days of the publication date, with responses directed to Sarah Rodrigues via email. Submissions should include the firm's Unique Entity Identifier (UEI), Tax Identification Number (TIN), and business size classification, with the size standard for the NAICS code set at $24.5M. The project involves five 8-hour in-person sessions with up to 10 staff members in Carson City, Nevada, focusing on strategic planning activities such as vision/mission review and goal development. The sole source justification is based on Veritas Visioneering's proprietary "Visioneering" methodology and previous work with LBAO on their 2013-2020 and 2020-2025 strategic plans. The government determined that changing facilitators would cause potential delays and increased costs, making Veritas the preferred contractor for this strategic planning update.
