X1FZ--Resident Housing for the Asheville VAMC

The Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 6 has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to negotiate a sole source contract with Berrington Village Apartments for residential housing services at the Asheville VA Medical Center in North Carolina. This $34 million procurement falls under NAICS Code 531110 for lessors of residential buildings and dwellings. The agency is justifying the sole source approach under FAR 13.106-1(b), which permits solicitation from a single source. The contracting officer for this procurement is Emily Donahue, who can be contacted at Emily.Donahue@va.gov. This notice explicitly states it is not a request for competitive quotes and no solicitation documents are currently available.

The purpose of this Special Notice is to provide transparency regarding the intended sole source procurement while offering other potential contractors an opportunity to demonstrate their capabilities if they believe they can meet the requirements. Interested businesses must submit written responses by 10:00am EST on August 25th, 2025, providing sufficient detail and supporting evidence to demonstrate their ability to comply with the residential housing requirements and relevant past experience. The government will consider any responses received by the deadline, though the decision whether to compete the acquisition remains entirely at the agency's discretion. Telephone inquiries will not be accepted, and all communications must be submitted in writing via email. Contractors seeking to participate must possess relevant expertise in residential housing services and be able to provide comprehensive documentation of their qualifications and experience.
