The Department of Veterans Affairs, through Network Contracting Office 21, intends to award a sole-source firm-fixed-price contract to the David J. Drakulich Art Foundation for specialized art instructor services to support therapeutic and rehabilitative programs for veterans at the Sierra Nevada Health Care System in Reno, Nevada. The contract, identified under solicitation number 36C26126Q0655 and NAICS code 611610, is justified under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), as the foundation is the only responsible source with unique, proven experience delivering veteran-centered art therapy programs and a demonstrated track record serving VA facilities. The performance period includes one base year and four optional one-year extension periods, with all services to be rendered on-site at the Reno facility. No formal solicitation document exists; instead, interested parties must submit a Statement of Capability by May 4, 2026, 10:00 AM PDT, via email to james.postell@va.gov with the specified subject line, providing clear and convincing evidence of their ability to meet the requirement. While no pricing details, line items, or evaluation factors are specified, the award determination rests solely on the uniqueness of the offeror’s qualifications, with no competitive process anticipated unless compelling evidence is presented by another capable entity. The contracting officer, James Postell, is the sole point of contact, and no contract administration details such as payment procedures, invoicing methods, or technical representatives have been established. The procurement does not involve physical deliverables, packaging, labeling, security clearances, or socioeconomic set-asides, and no formal contract clauses, representations, certifications, or inspection criteria have been defined beyond the statutory authority for sole-source acquisition.
