View moreThe Department of Veterans Affairs has issued this sources sought notice to conduct market research for the procurement of an electric button making machine, associated hardware, and consumables. The primary objective is to determine the feasibility of a small business set-aside, specifically targeting Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) and Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (VOSB). The requirement specifies a brand name or equal standard based on the Tecre Model 152 machine and includes a 2x2 die set along with components to produce 30,000 2x2 magnet buttons. This procurement is subject to the Buy American Act and relevant FAR clauses regarding domestic supplies.
The project is classified under NAICS 339910 for Jewelry and Silverware Manufacturing, which has a size standard of 700 employees, and PSC 3449 for Miscellaneous Secondary Metal Forming and Cutting Machines. Responses will help the agency decide whether to proceed with a total small business set-aside or a specific SDVOSB/VOSB set-aside. If a general small business set-aside is utilized, the agency intends to apply an SDVOSB/VOSB preferential evaluation factor. The nonmanufacturer rule under FAR 52.219-33 will apply specifically to any SDVOSB set-aside.
The place of performance for this requirement is Washington, DC. Interested parties must submit their responses by the deadline of May 5, 2026. Robert R.
