This document addresses vendor questions regarding an open market unrestricted solicitation by the VA, not set aside for specific small businesses due to prior market research indicating that set-aside solicitations resulted in bids exceeding funding and limitations of subcontracting/SBA size standards. The incumbent contractor is Otis Elevator Company. However, the previous contract number and cost are deemed irrelevant as this is a new requirement with significant updates. The VA will not disclose the budget, advising vendors to submit their most competitive offers. Limitations of subcontracting do not apply to this open market solicitation. Vendors should review the Special Standards of Responsibility in the RFQ for information on using subcontractor licenses. No site visit is planned; the SOW's equipment list should provide sufficient information.
