On-Site Facility & Training Environment Assessment

The contract seeks qualified small businesses to conduct on-site assessments of simulation labs, classrooms, and clinical training environments to ensure compliance with applicable accreditation standards. The evaluation will focus on physical infrastructure, instructional resources, equipment functionality, safety protocols, and overall readiness to support healthcare training programs in alignment with recognized accrediting bodies. The work is required to be performed at various federal facilities managed by the Department of Veterans Affairs under the Network Contract Office 23, with no specific location designated, indicating potential travel to multiple sites. This is a total small business set-aside under the SBA program, restricted exclusively to small businesses as defined by the SBA’s size standards for NAICS code 541611, which corresponds to management, scientific, and technical consulting services. Interested vendors must submit responses by May 8, 2026, at 10:00 PM Eastern Time, and the contract is structured as a subcontract, meaning the winning entity will likely perform services under a prime contractor or directly for the agency as part of a larger initiative. The assessment results will be critical in maintaining or achieving accreditation status for VA-affiliated training programs, ensuring that all learning environments meet industry benchmarks for quality, safety, and educational effectiveness.
