Q702--Bangor, ME Outpatient Clinic IOT&A

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VISN XX, XXXX Medical Center) is preparing a market‑research and acquisition‑planning report for a new or modified procurement that exceeds the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. The effort must detail the requirement—including functions, performance or supply characteristics, estimated value (including any options), delivery schedule, and applicable NAICS codes—and assess whether the work is suitable for performance‑based services. The report must document all market‑research activities, identify the acquisition team and any small‑business liaison, and describe the techniques used to solicit offers from the widest practicable pool of sources, including any Sources‑Sought notice, screening results, and justification for limited competition under 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1). The submission must identify all potential vendors (large, SDVOSB, VOSB, WOSB, HUBZone, 8(a), etc.), provide product or service specifications, past‑performance data, and business‑size classifications, and note any sole‑source justification. It must also analyze the commercial marketplace, address the Non‑Manufacturer Rule, outline standard industry terms (payment, freight, warranties), and discuss any financing requirements per FAR 32.202‑3. Finally, the acquisition plan must specify contract type, options (e.g., one‑year extensions or additional quantities), statutory authority for non‑full‑and‑open competition, and any bundling considerations, ensuring full compliance with VAAR 810.001‑70, VAAM M810.002‑70, and applicable FAR provisions.
