H999--SPS Water Sampling- Service Contract

Solicitation 36C24126Q0419 is a service contract award notice from the Department of Veterans Affairs for comprehensive water testing services at the Manchester VA Medical Center in New Hampshire. Set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) under NAICS 541380, the contract requires the collection and analysis of water samples from 12 designated critical and utility water points to ensure compliance with AAMI ST 108-2023 and NPOSP/10NC6 guidelines. The scope includes monthly and quarterly sampling for bacteria and endotoxin levels using accredited laboratories, with a requirement to provide analytical reports within seven business days and perform resampling within 48 hours if limits are exceeded. The period of performance runs from August 20, 2026, to August 19, 2027, with a potential six-month extension option. Award is based on a trade-off process considering technical capability, past performance, and total evaluated price. Key administrative requirements include strict adherence to subcontracting limitations, where no more than 50 percent of the contract value may be paid to non-certified SDVOSB/VOSB subcontractors. Contractor personnel must obtain temporary badging, undergo background investigations, and coordinate scheduling with the Contracting Officer's Representative to avoid disrupting Sterile Processing Service operations. Primary contract administration is managed by Contract Specialist Shawn Lawrence.
