This service is under the authority of 38 USC 2031 VA Homeless and Per Diem Program. Initially serving as a mechanism to contract with providers for community-based residential treatment for homeless Veterans, many HCHV programs now serve as the hub for a myriad of housing and other services that provide VA with a way to reach and assist homeless Veterans by offering them entry to VA care. Outreach is the core of the HCHV program. The central goal is to reduce homelessness among Veterans by conducting outreach to those who are the most vulnerable and not currently receiving services and engaging them in treatment and rehabilitative programs.
This service will be performed on an as needed basis, at the per diem and length of time agreed upon, and in accordance with the Performance Work Statement. VA is obligated only to the extent authorized placement of patients are made under this contract. The program is designed to provide temporary Emergency Housing to engage the Veterans into the transition to permanent Housing options. This requirement is estimated to utilize six (6) beds per day throughout a one (1) year performance period.
THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES; however, any firm that believes it can meet the requirements may give written notification prior to the response due date and time. Supporting evidence must be furnished in sufficient detail to demonstrate the ability to perform the requirement for the estimated period of performance (see attached RFQ for response information). Responses received will be evaluated; however, a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. If no responses are received, the Government will proceed with the award. The Government will not be responsible for any costs incurred by responding to this notice.
Responses are due by March 20, 2019, 1:00PM (HST). Responses shall be submitted via e-mail to andrea.kaplan@va.gov and Nicole.do@va.gov. Telephone requests or inquires will not be accepted.
