CONTRACT INFORMATION: General. A-E Services are being procured in accordance with the Selection of Architects and Engineers Statute (Public Law 92-582), formerly known as the Brooks Act, and implemented in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 36.6. All submissions will be evaluated in accordance with the evaluation criteria. The Government will not pay, nor reimburse, any costs associated with responding to this request. The Government is under no obligation to award a contract as a result of this announcement. Firms will be selected based on demonstrated competence and qualifications for the required work. The NAICS Code for this acquisition is 541330 Engineering Services and the applicable Small Business Size Standard is $15M. The area of consideration is RESTRICTED to a 500-mile driving radius of the Southeast Louisiana Veterans Health Care System, 2400 Canal Street, New Orleans, LA 70119 in which either the A/E firm’s Primary or established Auxiliary/Satellite office must be located. Note: The 500-mile driving radius will be measured by one or more of the nationally recognized commercial free on-line mapping services from the Primary or established Auxiliary/Satellite Office Address to the above VA address (shortest driving distance option). In-order to use the address of an already established Auxiliary/Satellite Office, the A/E Firm must have employees of their firm who are currently (before and at the time of SF330 submission) physically located at the Auxiliary/Satellite Office and are on the A/E’s Payroll—not employees of an actual or proposed subcontractor or on the payroll of an actual or proposed subcontractor. *Review solicitation for additional details.
