BVB Construction, Inc. has previously demonstrated their ability to complete projects at VA facilities in VISN 22 of similar size and scope. Due to the expiring funds for this project, it is in the best interest of the government to sole source this procurement to BVB Construction, Inc. 8.PRICE ANALYSIS: The determination of a fair and reasonable cost will be accomplished through the comparison of proposed price with the government estimate, and comparison with previous projects of similar scope and magnitude, as well as current Davis Bacon rates. 9.FUTURE ACTIONS TO OVERCOME BARRIERS TO FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION: Sole source awards are made to SDVOSB's through P.L. 109, under statutory authority. 10.This Justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge.
