The Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 6 at Hunter Holmes McGuire Veterans Affairs Medical Center has issued a Special Notice announcing their intent to enter into a sole source procurement for wheelchair van ride services. The agency plans to award this contract directly to INTEGRATED MAINTENANCE AND BUS SVCS, a company located in Locust Grove, Virginia, without conducting a competitive bidding process. This procurement falls under NAICS code 485991 for Special Needs Transportation and is classified under PSC category V212 for Motor Passenger transportation services. The anticipated contract duration is six months and will provide essential wheelchair-accessible transportation services for veterans. The notice was posted on September 3, 2025, by the Veterans Health Administration's Veterans Integrated Service Network 6.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to inform the contracting community of the government's intention to use sole source procurement authority under VAAR 819.7008, which permits direct awards to verified service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses. Interested parties have until September 5, 2025, at 11:59 PM Eastern Time to submit any relevant information, though this notice explicitly states it is not a request for quotation and no solicitation will be made available. The government will not accept telephone inquiries and requires that all information be provided at no cost or obligation to the agency. Eligibility for this specific procurement is limited to the pre-selected service-disabled veteran-owned small business, though the government reserves the right to determine whether to conduct competitive procurement in the future based on any responses received. The contracting officer has made clear that the decision to proceed without competition remains solely within the government's discretion.
