J046--Drinking Water Dispensers Preventative Maintenance & Repair Service NYH VA Medical Center (VA-25-00089517)

The Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 2 plans to award a sole source contract to HYDR8 LLC for maintenance and repair services of 155 Oasis International touchless water dispensers across the New York Harbor VA Medical Center facilities, including Brooklyn, St Albans, and MCC campuses. The contract is set for one year with four optional renewal years, covering the period from September 1, 2025, to August 31, 2030. HYDR8 is the only authorized vendor capable of servicing these specific dispensers, which require routine preventative maintenance such as water filter replacements, cleaning, sanitation, drainage inspections, unclogging, water pressure checks, UV light bulb replacements, and firmware or software updates. The VA requires these services because their engineering staff lack the factory training and authorization to support this specialized equipment, and the contract aims to ensure continuous, reliable operation of the dispensers. This notice emphasizes that the contract will be awarded without competitive bidding under FAR 6.302-1, but interested parties may submit written notifications if they believe they can fulfill the requirements. The VA will proceed with the award if no other responses are received by the deadline of August 4, 2025, at 10:00 am EDT. All inquiries and responses must be submitted via email to the designated Contract Specialist, Lorraine Hussain, and telephone inquiries will not be accepted. The contract aligns with NAICS code 811310, which covers repair and maintenance of commercial and industrial machinery and equipment, specifically plumbing, heating, and waste disposal systems.
