C222--Amendment to cancel before solicitation Provide Emergency Power 3rd Floor Labs

Solicitation 36C24625R0042 was issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 6 to secure Architect-Engineer services for providing emergency power to the 3rd floor labs at the Durham VA Medical Center in North Carolina. The scope of work involved a full design to upgrade electrical systems for AHU-65, laboratory equipment, and radiology equipment, as well as evaluating emergency lighting to ensure continuous operation during power outages. The project required a 243-calendar day period of performance and a design budget constrained between 500,000 and 750,000 dollars. This procurement was specifically set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) under NAICS code 541330. The selection process utilized a qualifications-based approach requiring the submission of SF 330 packages, evaluated based on knowledge of the locality and experience in construction period services. However, per amendment 36C24625R0042_4, the Durham VAMC has issued a notification to cancel the solicitation before proceeding. The agency will not move forward with the requirement at this time, although it may be solicited again at a later date.
