- Description
- The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Office of Procurement, Acquisition, and Logistics, Technology Acquisition Center (TAC), located at 23 Christopher Way, Eatontown, NJ, intends to award a sole source, firm-fixed price modification to Ability Network INC., located at 100 6TH ST N STE 900A. Minneapolis, MN 55403 to modify its existing contract to provide continued unsolicited response (UR) virtual private network (VPN) services in support of VA Financial Services Center (FSC). The TAC intends to award modification under the authority as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 6.302-1 entitled, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. However, in accordance with FAR 5.207(c)(16)(ii), all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. The proposed period of performance is a 4-month extension to the existing contract to provide uninterrupted support. The proposed modification will provide the Agency with the mechanism to obtain data to validate claims for processing and payment via a Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)-approved, commercially available Internet-based connection. This effort includes ancillary support services to ensure this connection maintains a 99% uptime. This solution must able to transfer the data to FSC in a secure manner and support the migration to the new VA electronic health record (EHR) system. Given the short time until the existing contract ends, VA must extend this contract to allow for completion of planning and execution of the follow-on action. This notification shall close on Monday, October 12, 2020 at 12:00 PM EST. The Points of Contact (POCs) for this action are Alma Aliaj at Alma.Aliaj@va.gov and Michael Weckesser, Contracting Officer, at Michael.Weckesser@va.gov.
