The Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking a fully serviced lease for a Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC) in San Gabriel, California, under solicitation number 36C24W26R0060, with proposals due by July 17, 2026. The requirement is for a prime commercial medical space that meets the stringent operational, safety, and security standards of a VA outpatient facility, including compliance with Facility Security Level II, which mandates rigorous access controls, construction security plans, and protection of classified and controlled unclassified information. The lease must accommodate tenant improvements to be finalized post-award, with a specified allowance of $450 per assignable square foot, and must conform to performance-based design standards detailed in the Lease Design Narrative, which references VA, GSA, NFPA, and ASHRAE codes across civil, architectural, mechanical, electrical, and telecommunications systems. All proposals must include a detailed cost structure broken down into building shell rental, tenant improvement amortization, building-specific amortized capital, services and utilities, and parking, supported by GSA Forms 1364 and 1217, and must demonstrate compliance with seismic safety, fire protection, and infection control protocols as outlined in the required exhibits, including the Prelease Fire Protection and Life Safety Evaluation Form and the Infection Control Risk Assessment template. The contract imposes extensive administrative, compliance, and operational obligations on the offeror, including adherence to GSAR and FAR clauses covering small business subcontracting, equal opportunity, cybersecurity, identity verification, and prohibitions on equipment from covered entities such as Kaspersky Lab or ByteDance. Offerors must be active in SAM.gov, submit GSA Form 3518-SAM, and comply with detailed janitorial service specifications, including staffing schedules, cleaning protocols, and safety procedures. Post-award, the lessor is required to coordinate with the Government’s Contracting Officer’s Representative through weekly meetings during the initial month and must maintain documentation of inspections, training, and corrective actions. Acceptance of the premises requires substantial completion of all tenant improvements, issuance of a certificate of occupancy, and conformance to approved design intent drawings, with final acceptance subject only to punchlist items, concealed conditions, or latent defects. The lease term will begin on acceptance and be structured as a firm-period lease with possible Government renewal options, with payments made monthly in arrears, and all invoices subject to strict content requirements and 30-day payment terms.
