Checklist
Leasing (cont'd)
Yes
No
d.
Has a parent facility contracting official, engineer and using facility
representative undertaken a market survey of each site to determine
whether each can or cannot be made to meet VBA's requirements
within a reasonable time frame?
e.
Does the market survey form for each site which has been determined
to be non-solicitable include a very specific reason for this
determination, one which cannot be corrected by the offeror?
f.
Has the floorplan for the proposed space been compared to the Basic
Module to determine that in order to determine whether the Expedited
Leasing Procedure (ELP) is usable? (Extreme caution should be taken
in attempting to obtain prompt quotes, the basic element of the ELP for
any buildout beyond that set forth in the Basic Module.)
g.
Is there sufficient narrative and graphic representation of the exact
specifications and layout VBA requires within the space attached to the
form requesting bids to avoid confusion and to assure a contract in
which VBA obtains fully occupiable space?
h.
Does any confusion arise which seems to require formal negotiations?
If so, a cancellation of the Expedited Leasing Procedure should be
considered in favor of issuance of a Solicitation for Offers, with
negotiations following receipt of the initial offers in order to facilitate the
request for best and final offers.
i.
Is it understood that any changes to the contract, once it is executed by
both parties, must be set forth and similarly executed on a
Supplemental Lease Agreement (GSA Form 276)?
