The Department of Veterans Affairs has canceled Solicitation No. 36C24126Q0443 for the J045—Newington Water Heater Replacement - VACHS Plumbing project, effective May 21, 2026, as the requirement no longer exists and no award will be made. The solicitation, originally issued as a combined synopsis and request for quotation under the NAICS code 238220, was designated as a Veteran Set Aside with performance expected at the VA Connecticut Healthcare System in Newington, CT. Proposals were due by May 7, 2026, with a planned performance period from May 15 to July 14, 2026, or within 180 calendar days of notice to proceed. The solicitation required offerors to submit pricing, labor rates, and compliance with VA-specific technical, security, and supply chain requirements, including adherence to VHA Directive 1810(1), which prohibits cast iron fittings, and VHA Master Specifications 23 22 13 for hydronic and steam piping systems. Offerors were also required to provide a Software Bill of Materials in NTIA-compliant format, use tamper-evident packaging with chain-of-custody documentation, employ FIPS 140-2 validated encryption, and follow NIST Cybersecurity Framework guidelines for supply chain integrity. Contractors could not perform work outside U.S. jurisdictions without prior approval and were subject to rigorous personnel security requirements, including VA-specific clearances, signing the VA Information Security Rule of Behavior, and immediate reporting of personnel changes. All submissions had to be made electronically via email to the designated Contract Specialist, and physical delivery was not permitted. Despite including a line item for water heater isolation valves, no pricing was specified in the solicitation, and the estimated contract value remains undetermined. The evaluation factors were price, technical, and past performance, with award intended to the most advantageous offer under Simplified Acquisition Procedures, not necessarily the lowest price. All offerors were notified that their submissions would not be evaluated due to the cancellation.
