    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is soliciting proposals for an increase in quantity of chairs and workstations under the Fiscal Year 2025 initiative. The solicitation number and response deadline are indicated as April 3, 2025, at 15:00 Eastern Time. The contracting office, located at the Orlando VA Healthcare System, is headed by point contacts Shawn Autrey and Benjamin Amato. This special notice outlines the use of non-competitive procedures for procurement, as allowed under specific statutory provisions, including 41 USC §3304(a)(5) and 38 U.S. Code § 8127(c). The notice cites the applicable Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) guidelines that authorize this approach to procurement, in an effort to expedite the acquisition process under certain circumstances. The primary aim is to enhance the working environment for veterans by ensuring that necessary office furniture is procured efficiently, potentially utilizing recovery act funds, although it is marked as not applicable in this case. This initiative demonstrates the VA's commitment to improving its facilities in support of veteran care and services.
    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is requesting sole source approval for a contract modification to procure 500 office chairs and 500 workstations from JPL & Associates LLC, a certified service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB). This modification, under contract #36C24824D0073, will increase the total contract value to $814,381.65, supporting the Orlando VA Healthcare System's need for accessible furniture for returning employees. The justification for using non-competitive procurement is based on existing authority under FAR and VAAR regulations, which permit such actions for contracts exceeding simplified acquisition thresholds. As market research was not conducted due to tight timelines and the nature of the existing contract, the decision was made to enhance the current agreement with a responsible vendor. Future acquisitions for healthcare furniture will be competed among eligible SDVOSBs to foster competition. The purchasing approach underscores the VA's commitment to ensuring timely support for healthcare operations while maintaining compliance with federal contracting regulations.
