A joint venture agrees that, in the performance of the contract, the applicable percentage specified in paragraph 852.219-73(d) of the clause will be performed by the aggregate of the joint venture participants. Failure of a prospective SDVOSB to meet these certification requirements by the SBA shall result in elimination from consideration.

Contract Information: A Firm Fixed Price Construction contract is contemplated for: Project No. & Title: 619A4-23-106 | Correct Mechanical/Fixtures/Piping for Bldg 2, 4, 4a Work Location: Central Alabama VA (East Campus) Tuskeegee, AL. Magnitude of Construction: Between $250,000 and $500,000. Estimated/target Completion Period: 90 calendar days after issuance of Notice to Proceed. The NAICS for this acquisition is 236220, Commercial and Institutional Building Construction, with a size standard of $45 million. The Product Service Code (PSC) is Z1DA, Maintenance of hospitals and infirmaries. . Definitization of equitable adjustments for any potential change orders will be handled in accordance with (IAW) federal regulations and policies as outlined in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), Department of Veterans Affairs Acquisition Regulation (VAAR), Veterans Affairs Acquisition Manual (VAAM), and any other applicable Veterans Affairs (VA) guidelines and policies. Applicable provisions and clauses will be included in the solicitation and subsequent contract. Data regarding VA timelines on definitizations within the past 3 fiscal years is currently unavailable. Project Information: This project will install dual parallel piping for domestic water and fire protection for buildings 2, 4, and 4A as well as installation of backflow preventers for Central Alabama Veterans Health Care Systems. The contractor shall provide all labor, supervision, transportation, materials, and incidentals to deliver all aspects of the project. The existing domestic water system for building 2 will require the installation of a reduced principle backflow preventer assembly (BFPA) per typical Department of Veteran s Affairs standard detail SD221100-01. Since the existing system does not currently have a BFPA, it will need to be located as close to the water main s entry into the building, and after the split to building 3, but before the first branch into the upper floors. The existing domestic water system for building 4/4A will require the installation of the same reduced principle backflow preventer assembly (BFPA) as indicated in the paragraph above. Since there is currently a BFPA installed and serving both buildings 4 and 4A, the system will need to be reconfigured to install one BFPA for each building. The water main will need to split before the first BFPA to route one line to building 4 and one line to building 4A. The BFPA for building 4 will be located in relatively the same location in the sub-basement Building 4A Service Room SB-1 and will need to be reconfigured to match the detail specifications. Piping will be wall mounted. The BFPA for building 4A will be located along the east wall of the same service room indicated above, next to an open pit in the floor. There is abandoned piping in the area, but the location of the new assembly will not conflict with any of the existing pipe. The BFPA for 4A will be floor mounted. The water main size serving buildings 4 and 4A will be 4 diameter and will need to be insulated. All water main piping will need to be replaced, and a new tie-in point to the new system created. Site Visits: A pre-proposal site visit will be held. Date and time will be announced in the solicitation.
