Description
The Department of Veterans Affairs intends to award a sole source contract for construction period services (CPS) to FFE – Heapy JV, LLC. The project involves upgrading the PACS system at the Atlanta VAMC. The required AE CPS services include construction submittal reviews, responses to contractor Requests for Information (RFI’s), execution of design changes, and attendance at necessary site visits and construction-related meetings.
• The current design contract is 100% complete but no longer has CPS as part of the scope.
• The intent is to retain the A-E designer of record (i.e., FFE – Heapy JV, LLC.) for the Construction solicitation and for the duration of the Construction contract.
• Sole sourcing to the designer of record (DOR) will allow the Government to decrease lead times for award of the Construction project and ensure the DOR is readily available to provide expertise in relation to their own Design documents.
