This document is an amendment to Solicitation 36C25725Q0870 for Valet Services issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 17. The amendment addresses questions from offerors and revises Section E.10 regarding evaluation criteria. Key clarifications include the need for a designated Traffic Director at all three locations (Dallas, Bonham, Fort Worth), confirmation that the VA provides the TV monitor for vehicle tracking at the Dallas location, and the absence of a scheduled site visit. The amendment specifies that only Texas driver's licenses are allowed for valet drivers. It also reveals the previous contract number (36C25720C0122) for the service. Staffing plans are the contractor's responsibility, with one supervisor (who can also drive) required per operating hours. The VA currently uses Flash valet software and will provide contingency plans for large-scale emergencies, while day-to-day contingencies are the contractor's responsibility. Monthly/weekly reports should be in Word, PDF, or Excel format. The revised evaluation criteria emphasize a comparative evaluation based on Technical Capability, Past Performance, and Price, with the government reserving the right to award to an offeror providing additional benefits beyond the lowest price.

The Past Performance Survey (form version 1.1, 36C25725Q0870) is a four-page document used to evaluate a contractor's performance on government contracts. The survey must be completed by an organization with direct knowledge of the contractor's work and submitted via email to Shannon.hodgson@va.gov and Dayna.cantu@va.gov. It gathers general information about the contract and contractor, details the services performed, and assesses performance using a six-point scale (1-Unsatisfactory to 6-Exceptional, with "3" indicating no record or inconclusive record). The survey asks the Delegated COR to rate the contractor on nine specific aspects, including personnel quality, adherence to schedules, cooperation, discrepancy resolution, work quality, problem-solving initiative, and whether they would recommend awarding another contract. Comments are required for "Unsatisfactory" or "Marginal" ratings and encouraged for others. The COR must sign and date the survey. Submissions are due by December 9, 2025, or as extended by solicitation amendments.
The document, D.7 ATTACHMENT 36C25625Q0870, outlines a standardized form for collecting past performance references from contractors, likely as part of a government Request for Proposal (RFP) or grant application process. It requires detailed information for three separate references, including the name and address of the organization, contract number, a brief description of the work, whether the contractor served as prime or sub-contractor, dates of performance, and total contract value. The form also asks about any terminations for cause or default, and any contract discrepancy reports, requiring explanations if applicable. Each reference also necessitates a point of contact, including their title, telephone number, and email address, along with a section for comments. This attachment is crucial for evaluating a contractor's past performance and suitability for future government contracts or grants.
This Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) outlines the government's approach to ensuring the North Texas Veteran Affairs Health Care System (NTXVAHCS) Valet Services contractor meets performance standards. It distinguishes the QASP from the contractor's Quality Control Plan (QCP), with the QASP providing government oversight. Key government personnel include the Contracting Officer (Shannon Hodgson) and the Contracting Officer's Representative (Bobbie Scoggins), who monitor performance. Surveillance methods include customer feedback, 100% inspection, periodic inspection, and random monitoring, all documented via a Surveillance Activity Checklist. Performance standards, such as vehicle wait times, report submission, patient complaint handling, and certification compliance, are tied to acceptable quality levels (AQLs) and incentivize performance through Favorable/Unfavorable CPARS. Monthly progress meetings will be held to assess performance.
