Highlights

The project was organized into four phases: Phase I. Was to acquire integration services and JFMIP certified software from two separate vendors on GSA FSS non-mandatory Schedule 70. These vendors are AMS. VA subsequently notified our Office of its determination that urgent and compelling circumstances exist that significantly affect the interest of VA and will not permit suspension of an award pending resolution of the protest. Neutralized or mitigated unless either VA eliminates from the competition the three software vendors that have alliances with KPMG (which would leave only AMS). A person is unable or potentially unable to render impartial assistance or advice to the Government. Or the person's objectivity in performing the contract work is or might be other impaired.
