- Description
- FBO Special Notice The proposed contract action is for services for which the Government intends to solicit with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. The North American Industry Classification System is 561110- Office Administrative Services. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Strategic Acquisition Center - Frederick (SAC-F) intends to award a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) sole source award to: Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), 600 5th Street, NW, Washington, DC 20001. The contract is for VA to participate in the SmartBenefits ® program to provide VA employees with transit benefits services. On April 21, 2000, President Clinton signed Executive Order (E.O.) 13150 titled "Federal Workforce Transportation." Section 2 of the E.O. required Federal agencies in the National Capital Region (NCR) to establish a transit pass fringe benefit program for personnel using mass transportation or qualified vanpools by October 1, 2000. Additionally, the Federal Employees Clean Air Incentives Act, 5 U.S.C. 7905, P.L. 103-172, December 2, 1993 (Incentives Act), was enacted as part of a national effort to improve air quality and reduce traffic congestion. The Incentives Act provides for the establishment of programs to encourage Federal employees to commute by means other than single-occupancy motor vehicles. The WMATA shall enroll the VA for participation in the SmartBenefits ® program, which is a Web-based program that will allow VA to assign the dollar values of participants' monthly benefits for commuting to and from work directly to the participants' SmarTrip ® cards. Commuting benefits may include transit for Metrorail, Metrobus, regional commuter bus and rail systems as applicable, and van pools. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes. No solicitation documents are available and telephone requests will not be accepted. However, interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to this requirement no later than Noon, June 26, 2015, local time. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Point of Contact: Wanda Y. Edwards, wanda.edwards@va.gov No telephone requests will be accepted.
