ran-Owned Business (SDVOSB), to provide Construction Period Services (CPS) during the construction of Project #596-334 Construct Replacement CLC � Complex Care Minor, Lexington VA Health Care System � Franklin R. Sousley (Leestown) Campus. PROJECT BACKGROUND & DESCRIPTION: Our intention is to procure CPS in support of #596-334 Construct Replacement CLC � Complex Care Minor project at the Lexington VA Health Care System � Franklin R. Sousley (Leestown) Campus, Lexington, KY. The current design firm of record is RDC/John Poe Architects, L.L.L.P., located at 524 Fernwood Drive, Altamonte Springs, Florida 32701. They are SDVOSB and have been in the process of designing this (Minor) construction project since the award of the design contract 36C77623C0076 on July 20, 2023. The current design contract with RDC/John Poe Architects, L.L.L.P. no longer has construction period services as part of the scope. The design is now 100% complete and the construction procurement is currently being solicited. However, this project requires CPS in order to support the construction portion of this (Minor) requirement. Any prospective design firm will need to possess working knowledge of all issues that may arise and will assume the liabilities associated with any and all aspects of the design. Throughout the solicitation period, the A-E shall provide solicitation support services (SSS) to include, but not limited to, attending the pre-bid site-visit meeting and project walk, answering any technical questions/requests for information (RFIs) received from contractors within five calendar days of the date the questions, and providing addenda as necessary if required to revise specs and drawings. The A-E shall provide CPS throughout the construction period to include, but not limited to, providing responses to any requests for information, reviewing submittals, creating a complete set of air emissions permit and land disturbance permit application forms, completing site visit reports, reviewing modification requests, completing a punch list, and delivering record drawings. PROCUREMENT INFORMATION: The proposed project will be a sole source continuation design contract to the original designer of record, RDC/John Poe Architects, L.L.L.P. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 541330 (size standard $25.5 million) applies to this procurement. The duration of the project is estimated at a total period of performance of 605 calendar days, 150 calendar days for SSS and 455 calendar days for CPS. It is the intent of the Government to award this project as a sole source.

Value counts new single-winner awards. "Shared" awards are multiple-award contracts that list every winner with the same total ceiling (same contract, or the same office, day and amount); that ceiling is not one company's win, so it is not added in. Contract modifications are not new awards and are not added in either. Notices whose amount is a placeholder such as $999,999,999 are not added in. Revenue next to a ticker is the company's revenue over the latest 12 months in its SEC filings.
