This is an egregious use of sole sourcing. How can they get away with this?!? Reply

Reply to Tom, Marie, Florida builder: The VA has its own board and works by its own rules. I dought Obama has anything to do with it. They probably did work for the VA in te past and they stay within firm they worked with in the past Reply

why would this be a Sole Source award? There are a ton of companies, including mine, that can do this work...and possibly for lower cost. Makes no sense. Reply

Reply to Florida Builder : It is because this company probably donated thousands to the Obama campaign. Reply

Reply to Florida Builder : ACRO Construction is out of Panama City, FL. Probably have political connections. Reply
