The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 19, is seeking quotes for the procurement, modification, and delivery of one specialized rehabilitation minivan to be delivered to the George E. Wahlen VA Medical Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. This firm-fixed price contract is 100 percent set aside for small business concerns under NAICS code 336110.

The vehicle must be a minivan configuration, such as a Toyota Sienna or Chrysler Pacifica, featuring a lowered floor of at least 14 inches and meeting NHTSA gross motor vehicle weight capacity standards. The vehicle must be equipped with extensive adaptive and training features, including a power ramp with a 1000 lb capacity, a 6-way transfer seat, and a variety of specialized steering grips and hand controls such as the Veigel Classic II and Sure-Grip Featherlite Evaluator Set. For driver training purposes, the vehicle requires instructor brakes, a kill switch, and a specific array of eye-check, rear-view, and spotter mirrors. Additional requirements include rubberized durafloor with a wheelchair track system, a dual back-up battery system, and magnetic student driver signage. Award will be based on a comparative analysis of technical capability, price, and delivery lead time, with a strong preference for products that comply with the Buy American Act. Quotes must be submitted via email and include a Buy American Certificate and an OEM authorization letter if the offeror is not the manufacturer.
