Joint ventures may qualify if they meet regulatory standards and representations. The contracting officer overseeing this solicitation is Frankie Basham, who can be contacted for further information. Businesses are warned that false representation of SDVOSB status can result in significant penalties, including suspension from Department of Veterans Affairs contracting opportunities for a minimum of five years. This opportunity promotes the participation of service-disabled veteran entrepreneurs in federal contracting to support veteran-focused healthcare infrastructure improvements.
