H145--Bldg. 9 Repair Plumbing

This contract amendment pertains to interior plumbing renovation work at Building 9 of the Sam Rayburn Memorial Veterans Center in Bonham, Texas, under a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-aside, with NAICS code 238220. The solicitation, issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs’ Network Contracting Office 17 in San Antonio, Texas, requires all offers to be submitted electronically via email to Crystal Carabajal by 3:00 p.m. CST on July 17, 2026. Proposals must be divided into two PDF volumes: Volume I contains administrative and pricing documents including a signed SF 1449, completed Blocks 12, 17a, 30a, 30b, and 30c, and the B.2 Schedule of Services with all-inclusive firm-fixed unit prices; no option pricing is permitted, and if submitted, the higher price will be used. Volume II contains the technical approach to fulfilling the scope of work, and both volumes must be consistent. Only SDVOSBs certified in the SBA database are eligible, and the prime contractor must not pay more than 50% of the contract value to non-certified entities. The contract will be awarded on a best-value basis as a firm-fixed-price contract to the technically acceptable offeror whose proposal is most advantageous to the government, considering technical capability, price, and past performance. The work involves comprehensive interior renovation: selective demolition of walls, ceiling tiles, and plumbing fixtures; framing new walls and doors; relocating toilets, sinks, and urinals; installing a wall-mounted sink with associated plumbing modifications; relocating and rewiring electrical components, lights, switches, and bathroom vents; and modifying fire sprinkler and strobe systems. All drywall must be prepared to paint-ready standards, and ceiling grids and tiles reinstalled. The contractor must submit detailed pre-construction documentation—including AHA/APP, ICRA/PCRA, LOTO, utility shutdown, confined space, OSHA training, SDS, traffic control, and equipment inspections—all due 14 days prior to mobilization. The Field Service Engineer must report to the Engineering Service Office at the site for badging and sign-in before work begins. Personnel must be screened by the Dallas VAMC Healthcare System, wear dual badges, and comply with strict safety protocols, including PPE, barriers, negative air, and fire safety measures. Work
