J061--EMERGENCY POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM SERVICE

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Network Contracting Office 21 is conducting a sources sought announcement to identify contractors capable of providing emergency power supply system services for the VA Sierra Nevada Health Care System. This announcement is solely for market research purposes and does not constitute a solicitation or guarantee of a contract award. The scope of work involves testing, inspections, and battery replacement services for generators, automatic transfer switches (ATS), and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) as outlined in a draft Performance Work Statement (PWS). The contract falls under NAICS code 811310, focusing on commercial and industrial machinery and equipment repair and maintenance, with a small business size standard of $12.5 million. Interested contractors must submit capability statements and detailed information, including socioeconomic status, relevant experience, examples of similar projects, and subcontracting plans. Small businesses, including Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) and Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (VOSB), must comply with subcontracting limitations that require at least 50 percent of contract personnel costs to be incurred by the prime contractor’s employees. Responses are due by December 19, 2025, and must include a price estimate covering a base period plus four option years. Contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM), and SDVOSB/VOSB firms should be verified with the Small Business Administration. The Government will use the information collected to inform the procurement strategy but is not obligated to make an award.
