Solicitation # 36C24926Q0264_1
This solicitation, numbered 36C24926Q0264_1, is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-aside for laboratory courier services at the Robley Rex Veterans Medical Center in Louisville, Kentucky, with performance extending to multiple VA outpatient clinics and facilities across the region. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) agreement with a base period of one year from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027, and two optional one-year extensions through September 30, 2029, subject to funding and performance. Offerors must submit a single email containing two attachments: a completed SF1449 form and a technical proposal detailing business capabilities, staffing, quality control, contingency planning, and past performance—all limited to 25MB total size. The evaluation will be based on a best-value trade-off approach, weighing technical merit—including business approach, quality assurance, and past performance—alongside price, without assigning formal weights or favoring the lowest bid. The government will inspect and accept all services upon delivery at designated destinations, enforcing strict performance standards such as no more than two late pickups or deliveries every two weeks, 100% accuracy in chain-of-custody documentation, and full adherence to communication protocols. Compliance with FAR and VAAR clauses is mandatory, including prohibitions on subcontracting more than 50% of contract value to non-SDVOSBs, mandatory audit rights, and strict certification of SDVOSB status under the VA Veterans First Contracting Program, which supersedes SBA rules. Contractors must submit electronic invoices via the VA Financial Services Center portal, use electronic funds transfer for payments, and comply with federal requirements including whistleblower protections, business ethics, and reporting of executive compensation. All responses are due by August 5, 2026, and must be submitted via email to the Contracting Officer, Carmen Hanczyk, at the Network Contracting Office 9 in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, with no oral submissions or physical deliveries permitted.
