H139--Elevator Inspection Services Sheridan, WY

The Department of Veterans Affairs, through Network Contracting Office 19 in Greenwood Village, Colorado, is seeking information from qualified vendors to provide elevator inspection services at the Sheridan VA Health Care System located in Sheridan, Wyoming. This is a sources-sought notice, not a formal solicitation, aimed at identifying capable contractors for a potential indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract with a base period of five years from August 1, 2026, to July 31, 2031. The scope of work requires certified personnel to conduct annual, semi-annual, and five-year inspections on 17 elevators and lifts across various types—hydraulic, traction, freight, laundry, and wheelchair lifts—ensuring full compliance with ASME A17.1, NFPA Life Safety and Fire Codes, OSHA regulations, and all applicable federal, state, and local codes. All inspectors must hold current QEI-1 certification, and work must be scheduled during normal operating hours with two weeks’ advance notice, excluding holidays and requiring weekend work only for major shutdowns. Deliverables include comprehensive inspection reports submitted within 45 days of each inspection, in both printed bound and electronic formats (PDF, Excel, or Word), along with maintenance checklists due within one week of completion. Contractors must coordinate all activities through the designated Contracting Officer’s Representative, Christine Jarvis, and adhere to VA-specific on-site protocols, including wearing issued identification badges, checking in and out prior to and after each visit, and obtaining prior authorization for any service requests. The contractor assumes full liability for any damage caused to VA property and must ensure that no more than 50% of the contract value is subcontracted to non-similarly situated entities. Reporting must be immediate for any safety violations or code deficiencies, with 99% timeliness required for report submission and 100% compliance mandated for all technical standards. While no pricing data or contract value is provided in this notice, the eventual award is expected to follow a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) methodology. Responses must be submitted via email by 10:00 AM Mountain Daylight Time on June 4, 2026, and include a capabilities/qualifications statement limited to eight pages and a completed market research questionnaire requiring UEI number, business size status, and affirmation of QEI-1 certification. All vendors must be registered in SAM.gov and meet the NAICS code 2
