Clinical Space Surprise AZ

The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking a 10-year lease for approximately 12,529 rented square feet of clinical space in Surprise, Arizona, to house Optical and Physical Therapy Clinics, with a minimum of 70 parking spaces and no bifurcated sites allowed. Properties must be located within a defined boundary bounded by W. Mountain View Blvd, West RH Johnson Blvd, West Greenway Road, and AZ State Route 303, and preference is given to existing buildings over ground-up construction. The estimated commencement date is October 2026, with potential for later start dates. The solicitation, identified as 36C24W26R0053, is open for responses until June 27, 2026, and requires submission via email in PDF format with visible original signatures, using mandatory forms including GSA Form 1364 and GSA Form 1217. All offerors must be actively registered in SAM, have a validated TIN and UEI, and comply with socioeconomic requirements including potential SDVOSB or VOSB status verification through VIP. The lease requires compliance with ADA, Interagency Security Committee standards, and includes extensive infrastructure mandates such as a sealed IT room, intrusion detection, access control, window coverings, interior and exterior signage, a business directory, vending machines, and a flag pole. Tenant improvements, funded by the lessor, must meet detailed design intent drawings, provide three finish options, and adhere to an 8-foot minimum ceiling height. The space must achieve substantial completion, verified by government inspection and a certificate of occupancy, and will be measured for ANSI/BOMA Occupant Area (ABOA) compliance, with payment capped at the contracted square footage. Award will follow a best value tradeoff process, evaluating experience with VA clinical facilities, cost, proximity to veteran communities and public transit, amenity support for staff and veterans, flexible space configuration via test fit layout, and infrastructure readiness for telehealth and medical technology, with efficiency of layout serving as a mandatory pass/fail gate. Financial terms require a fully serviced lease including shell rent and amortized tenant improvement costs, with lessors submitting an annual cost statement for utilities and cleaning. Payment terms mandate proper invoicing with specific details, with payment due on the later of 30 days after receipt of a proper invoice or government acceptance, and failure to invoice for LASS services within 120 days forfeits payment rights.
