AI Contract Overview
The Department of Veterans Affairs, through the Robley Rex VA Medical Center, is seeking responses from qualified contractors to assess market interest and determine the appropriate procurement approach for a Warehouse as a Service (WaaS) contract under NAICS code 493110, with a small business size standard of $39 million and Product Service Code R706. The Government requires comprehensive logistics support including receiving, inventory management, storage, staging, delivery, and repackaging of approximately 340 pallets of medical and non-medical supplies—ranging from ICU beds, ventilators, and IT equipment to PPE, surgical supplies, and lab kits—with the potential to expand up to 600 pallets. All items must be stored in a contractor-owned or leased facility of up to 20,000 square feet, with a minimum 22-foot ceiling height, at least one loading dock, and ideally within 30 minutes’ driving distance of the current location at 1700 Mellwood Ave., Louisville, KY. The facility must include a minimum of 1,000 square feet of secure, climate-controlled space for IT equipment and an additional 1,000 square feet for administrative offices, a break room, and restrooms. The move from the current location must be completed by September 30, 2026, with performance expected to begin no later than August 1, 2026. The Government has not identified a suitable replacement facility and expects vendors to locate and provide appropriate climate-controlled space. Contractors must demonstrate they have the necessary resources—warehouse space, labor, equipment, and supplies—to begin work on the required start date or provide a specific alternative start date if unable to do so. All responders must be registered in SAM and certified as capable of meeting SBA’s limitations on subcontracting under FAR 52.219-14 if a small business set-aside is pursued. The contract requires adherence to strict operational, security, and compliance standards, including physical and data security protocols aligned with VA Directive 0710 and the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual (NISPOM). All VA equipment must be professionally wrapped and protected to prevent damage, with medical and surgical items segregated using cages or defined barriers for rapid identification. Inventory must be maintained in compliance with manufacturers’ requirements, utilizing first-in-first-out practices, and monitored for temperature, humidity, pest control, and cleanliness with weekly cleaning schedules.
