Sec. 819.7004  Waiver of the use of veteran-owned firms.



    It is the policy of the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide 

veteran-owned firms every opportunity to participate in the acquisition 

process. A contracting office wishing to waive this policy for a 

particular procurement involving other than small purchase procedures 

must first process a VA Form 90-2268. The contracting officer must 

clearly document on VAF 90-2268 the reasons that eligible veteran-owned 

firms are not intended to be solicited or quotations sought for the 

particular procurement. Exempt from this reporting requirement are SBA 

8(a) acquisitions.
