7110--Waldners Steelcase Furniture

The Department of Veterans Affairs, James J. Peters Bronx VAMC, plans to award a sole source, firm fixed price contract to POMERANTZ ACQUISITION CORP. for the purchase of Waldners Steelcase office furniture. This decision is based on the sole source justification authorized under the Federal Acquisition Regulations, citing reasons such as urgency and exclusivity of the product offering. The contract follows NAICS code 337214, which corresponds to the office furniture manufacturing industry. The notice explicitly states that it is not a solicitation for competitive bids, and interested parties submitting proprietary information will not be reimbursed. Due to the urgent need, the government intends to finalize the contract award around December 13, 2021. This contract represents a follow-on requirement, indicating that POMERANTZ ACQUISITION CORP. has previously provided similar services or products to the agency. The Department of Veterans Affairs has emphasized that no requests for telephonic inquiries or capability briefings will be entertained, though any information received about potential vendors may be considered for future procurements. The contract is managed by the 242-NETWORK Contract Office 02 in Albany, NY, with Wilmen Joa listed as the point of contact. The contractor’s address is in Philadelphia, PA. This streamlined procurement reflects the agency’s need to rapidly secure specialized office furnishings while complying with federal acquisition regulations governing sole source awards.
