Snow and Ice Removal Management Services

The Department of Veterans Affairs is soliciting proposals for a firm-fixed-price contract to provide 24/7 on-call snow and ice management services at the Beckley VA Medical Center in West Virginia. The period of performance runs from November 1, 2026, through April 30, 2027. This acquisition is a total set-aside for certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB). The contractor is responsible for providing all labor, equipment, and materials for plowing, deicing, pre-treatment, and snow relocation across all campus roads, parking lots, garages, sidewalks, and emergency access routes. Key operational requirements include continuous monitoring of the National Weather Service, adherence to a specific snow site plan, and a strict prohibition on using sodium chloride on parking garage decks and ramps. Award will be based on a comparative evaluation of technical capability, past performance over the last three years, and pricing reasonableness, rather than a low-price technically acceptable process. Contractors must meet stringent safety and security standards, including OSHA training, background investigations, and specific insurance minimums for general liability, automobile liability, and workers compensation. Invoicing must be processed electronically via FSC e-Invoice. All personnel requiring facility access must obtain proper PIV/HSPD-12 credentials, and the contractor must comply with the Service Contract Act wage determinations for Fayette and Raleigh counties.
