The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office (NCO2) intends to award a sole source contract to W.L. Concepts & Production, Inc. 1 Bennington Freeport, NY 11520 under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 253-c-1, as implemented in FAR 6.302-1 Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. W.L. Concepts & Production, Inc is the sole authorized installer of Takeform signage required by the Design for the Castle Point VA Medical Center Wayfinding Installation in the NY, NJ, CT and PA regions as the signage manufacturer does not accept requests of authorized dealers from general construction contractors. W.L. Concepts & Production, Inc. will install the signage as required by the awarded design contract. Place of Performance: Castle Point VA Medical Center Route 9D, Castle Point, NY 12551 Period of Performance: 120 days from Notice to Proceed This requirement was previously posted under 36C24219B0023 which has been cancelled. This notice of intent is not a request for quotations; interested parties may express their interest by providing a capabilities statement no later than Friday June 5, 2019 at 10:00AM EST. The capabilities statement must provide clear and unambiguous evidence to substantiate the capability of the party to provide the required services. A determination not to compete this proposed requirement upon receipt of responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Verbal responses are not acceptable and will not be considered after June 5, 2019 at 10:00AM EST, if no viable responses have been received in response to this announcement, Department of Veterans Affairs shall negotiate solely with W.L. Concepts & Production, Inc. The Government believes the services outlined in the Statement of Work, available through the link below, cannot be provided by another firm within a timely and practical manner. The design of this requirement was competed, awarded and approved using Takeform signage products and W.L. Concepts & Production, LLC is the sole authorized installer for the design signage. The Government believes that it would be highly disadvantageous to redesign the project in order to compete this requirement as it would result in substantial time delays and cost impact to the Government. This notice of intent to award a sole source contract is not a request for competitive quotes. There will be no solicitation available for competitive quotes. Phone calls will not be accepted. The point of contact for this action is Ms. Dany Humphreys, Contract Specialist at [email protected]. The Government anticipates awarding a firm-fixed-price contract.
