The procurement is anticipated under VAAR 819.70 and carries an SDVOSB sole-source set-aside.

The VA intends to award a follow-on contract to the same incumbent without competitive solicitation to maintain continuity of service and avoid interruption to interpreter services used by VA staff and beneficiaries.

Nexus Universal is a verified, certified SDVOSB concern.
This notice is not a request for competitive proposals. The VA will consider information from interested parties solely to determine whether a competitive procurement should be conducted instead. No performance location, specific dollar ceiling, or contract period length is disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice.
