Calvet RFI 26HS0014 - Abatement testing

The California Department of Veterans Affairs (CalVet) has issued a Request for Information (RFI 26HS0014) to gather market intelligence on abatement testing and post-remediation clearance services for the California Veterans Home in Yountville, located at 260 California Drive, Yountville, CA 94599. The RFI seeks detailed information from vendors regarding their capabilities in conducting visual, air, and bulk sampling for hazardous materials, implementing abatement procedures, and ensuring regulatory-compliant clearance protocols, with a focus on services for 19 residential units at the facility. The response deadline is May 7, 2026, at 3:00 PM Pacific Time, and submissions must be sent via email to Trinh Nguyen at [email hidden] with the subject line referencing RFI 26HS0014; other submission methods are not accepted. Proposals must be submitted in Microsoft Office 2010 or newer or PDF format and include proof of legal business authorization in California, valid Secretary of State status documentation, and certification of subcontractor utilization. The RFI does not establish binding contractual obligations, nor does it include Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses, evaluation factors, award criteria, or contract values, as it is strictly an information-gathering tool to inform future procurement decisions. No standard representations, certifications, security clearances, key personnel requirements, or contract options are mandated, and no formal inspection, acceptance, packaging, or marking procedures are defined. The NAICS code 562910 applies, and the agency is designated as a state-level entity under SLED classification. Respondents are expected to reference applicable federal and state regulations, though none are explicitly listed, and all submissions must demonstrate compliance with California business licensing requirements without requiring federal identifiers such as UEI or CAGE codes. The outcome of this RFI will determine the procurement strategy for a future solicitation.
