    The Department of Veterans Affairs has issued a special notice regarding a sole-source procurement for emergency services related to breaker testing and transformer inspection at the Lt. Col. Luke Weathers Jr. Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Memphis, TN. JJ&J Facility Maintenance, LLC has been selected for this requirement, which entails tri-annual maintenance of approximately 100 circuit breakers and 300 transformers. This decision stems from the contractor's status as a verified small business, competitive pricing, and capability to fulfill the requirement. The procurement falls under the authorities of FAR 6.302-5 for statutory requirements and FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) for single-source solicitation under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT). The stated NAICS code for this procurement is 811310, with a size standard of $12.5 million. Although the notice does not solicit formal competitive quotes, interested parties may express their interest and capability to the designated contact, who will evaluate submissions. The government reserves the right to utilize information received from responses but is not obligated to respond or award a contract based on them. This notice represents an essential step in ensuring operational readiness within the VA's electrical systems while maintaining compliance with federal regulations concerning procurement processes.
    The document outlines a justification for a single-source procurement by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for electrical maintenance services at the Lt. Col. Luke Weathers Jr. VAMC in Murfreesboro, TN. The plan indicates that the services required include tri-annual maintenance of approximately 100 circuit breakers and 300 transformers, with an estimated amount exceeding the micro-purchase threshold but not exceeding the Simplified Acquisition Threshold of $250,000. The justification highlights that the selected contractor, JJ & J Facility Maintenance, LLC, is uniquely qualified to perform these services as no other vendors in the Memphis area can provide the needed capabilities. Market research through the Small Business Administration's VetCert yielded 310 results from Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs) and Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (VOSBs), but none were local or suitable for the maintenance task. The contracting officer certifies the accuracy of the justification, confirming compliance with FAR 13.106-1(b) and stating that a price reasonableness determination is required prior to award. This document demonstrates a typical procedural approach for governmental procurement when limited to single-source vendors due to specific service needs and local availability constraints.
