The PSAC business processes are unique, not common or duplicated across other government agencies, and dynamic, the PSAC requests a live demonstration of functionality, configurability, and no-code/low-code development tools and activities to confirm that products exist in the marketplace with the capability of modeling and automating the PSAC business processes and workflows.

This notice does not commit the VA to contract for any supply or service. Further, the VA is not seeking quotes, bids or proposals at this time and will not accept unsolicited proposals in response to this sources sought notice. The VA will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this notice. Submittals will not be returned to the responder. Not responding to this notice does not preclude participation in any future RFQ or IFB or RFP, if any is issued. If a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the Governmentwide Point of Entry. It is the responsibility of potential offerors to monitor the Governmentwide Point of Entry for additional information pertaining to this requirement. Any information submitted by respondents to this sources sought notice is strictly voluntary. All submissions become Government property and will not be returned. Overview: The PSAC operates as one of the business segments of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Franchise Fund and is a self-supporting line of business (Enterprise Center). VA Franchise Fund Enterprise Centers (ECs) are authorized to sell common administrative support services to the VA and other Government Agencies on a fee-for-service basis and operate entirely on revenues earned from customers.

See attached Draft Product for more details. VA is seeking information from Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), to include a brief technical capability statement. Interested vendors may be invited to demonstrate the solution to VA technical experts at no cost to the government.
