There’s a second chance to win a place on the Veterans Affairs Department’s $12 billion T4 (Transformation Twenty-One Total Technology) program.

The VA is preparing an On Ramp to add one or more veteran-owned or service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, as a result of one or more existing awardees no longer being eligible due to acquisitions, according to GovWin. There currently are 15 awardees, nine large and six small.

The T4 On Ramp will be tailored to experienced current SDVOSBs or VOSBs with NAICS code 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services), who are within the size standard of $25.5 million.

A solicitation could happen in January and an award in July, 2013.

The complete T4 contract expires on June 30, 2016.
