- Description
- INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Officer 22 intends to award a firm-fixed price contract on a single source basis to Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services, located 1133 Washington Blvd., Culver City, CA 90232, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) Soliciting from A Single Source. The contractor will provide Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST) to VAGLAHS staff. The period of performance will be from September 28, 2018 through September 27, 2019. The associated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 611710 with size standard $15 Million. The single source rationale is based on the fact that Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services is part of VAGLAHS s team of key stakeholders, including collaborative groups of community, municipal, military and other stakeholders (e.g. Department of Mental Health, LAPD, Sheriffs, 211 Los Angeles, County Veterans Network, CA National Guard, Inner City Law, CA Office of Mental Health Oversight and Accountability, and others) to tackle the issues of Suicide Prevention in LA s veterans. Continuity of care and collaboration amongst these community partners will be essential in completing the VA/Substance Abuse Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Mayor s Challenges to prevent suicide. The goal of the Mayor s Challenge is to eliminate suicide by using a comprehensive public health approach to suicide prevention. Los Angeles is one of the seven cities selected, given the high prevalence rates of suicide in Los Angeles and the significant number of Veterans residing in Los Angeles County. This program requires the participation of VAGLAHS s Suicide Prevention Program, local leadership participation, and the community (mayor s designee). The collaboration amongst the key stakeholders outlined above is crucial in completing the VA/SAMHS Mayor s Challenge to prevent suicide. Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services is the first Suicide Prevention Center in the Nation and they have a vested interest in the mission of reducing Veteran suicides by making a commitment to actively take on this mission as part of the Mayor s Challenge Team. Their location in Los Angeles further strengthens their understanding of the population being served and the complexity of the system that run through one of the largest counties in the country. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. It is not a solicitation or request for offers. No solicitation package is available. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. Responses received by 10:00 AM (PDT) on Thursday, September 27, 2018 will be considered by the Government. Inquiries can be emailed to Kevin.vo@va.gov. No telephone requests will be accepted.
