The contract, classified under NAICS code 812331 for linen supply, covers a base period from July 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027, with four one-year option periods extending through June 30, 2031, for a total potential contract duration of five years.

Services include collection of soiled linens, hospital-grade laundering, drying, stain removal, folding, sealed packaging, labeling, and return of clean linens, with strict prohibitions against co-mingling with VA patient-care or contaminated materials. All linens must meet rigorous quality standards: they must be free of stains, tears, odors, lint, or residue, with only a neutral hypoallergenic scent permitted, and delivered in sealed, labeled bundles. The contractor must maintain a contingency plan for uninterrupted service in the event of facility failure and provide monthly inventory and usage reports. The contract requires strict adherence to labor standards under the Service Contract Act with Wage Determination 2015-4553, as well as compliance with multiple FAR and VAAR clauses including those governing contractor ethics, whistleblower rights, equal opportunity, electronic invoicing, and prohibitions on internal confidentiality agreements or influence payments.

Offerors must also submit a signed SF-1449, certified representations and certifications through SAM updated within the last year, and signed acknowledgment of any amendments. Evaluation will be based on best value, considering both price and non-price factors, with administrative compliance as a mandatory pass
