The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking market research through a sources sought notice for armored courier services under NAICS code 561613 and Product Service Code V127, replacing the prior code V112, with a response deadline of May 21, 2026. This notice, issued by the Network Contracting Office 2 located in Bronx, New York, is not a formal solicitation and does not intend to award a contract at this stage; its purpose is to gather information on market capability to inform future procurement decisions. Responses must include a capability statement detailing past performance in similar secure transport services, current SAM UEI registration, socioeconomic status certifications such as SDVOSB, VOSB, WOSB, HUBZone, or 8(a) status with supporting documentation, and information on proposed technicians, training, and subcontracting plans. The intended performance location is the VA New York Harbor Healthcare System, with pickup and delivery between VA facilities in Brooklyn and St. Albans and designated financial institutions including Chase Bank, Capital One Bank, and Bank of America, operating Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, excluding federal holidays. Contractors must provide bonded, armored vehicles and certified personnel for secure transport of cash and checks, with acceptance of deliveries confirmed at financial institution drop-off points via signed receipts. No formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, pricing, or packaging standards are included in this notice, and no contract type, award basis, or period of performance has been established beyond an anticipated start date in July 2026. All submissions must be emailed to Natalie Acevedo at natalie.acevedo@va.gov, with no specified page limits or file formats, though electronic documents are implied. There are no requirements for security clearances, option periods, or contract modifications at this time, and no contracting officer’s representative or payment office details are provided, as this is purely a preliminary market research effort.
