W099--STX Movement and Storage Service

This contract, identified by solicitation number 36C25726Q0342, is a combined synopsis and request for quote issued under FAR Part 12 for commercial move and storage services, specifically set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB). The acquisition is managed by the Department of Veterans Affairs’ Network Contracting Office 17 in San Antonio, Texas, with performance required at various VA healthcare facilities across South Texas, including San Antonio and Victoria. The base period of performance runs from July 15, 2026, to July 14, 2027, with four one-year option periods available, potentially extending the contract through July 14, 2031. Contractors must provide comprehensive services including secure, climate-controlled warehouse storage of at least 10,000 square feet, transportation and relocation of government property, disassembly and reassembly of furniture, inventory management, and on-site supervision by certified forklift operators. All storage must meet strict environmental controls, maintaining temperatures between 68–74°F year-round, and government property must never be stored directly on the floor unless approved. Items must be properly marked with brand, model, OEM, and manufacturer codes, though no specific labeling standards are mandated. The contract requires strict adherence to federal regulations, including FAR clauses on business ethics, whistleblower protections, employee verification, and security prohibitions, as well as VA-specific requirements such as the subcontracting limitation of 50% to non-certified entities and mandatory insurance coverage for workers’ compensation, general liability, and automobile liability. Offerors must demonstrate technical capability through a detailed Performance Work Statement, Quality Control Plan, and staffing approach, with evaluation based on a best value trade-off process that weighs technical merit and past performance against price, not on a lowest-price, technically acceptable basis. Proposals must be submitted electronically via email by the deadline of May 22, 2026, and must include certified proof of SDVOSB status, a completed SF 1449, pricing for all line items, and references from prior contracts. All contractor personnel must obtain VA contractor badges for facility access, and pre-award site inspections of the proposed warehouse are mandatory. Invoicing is exclusively through the Tungsten Network, and the contract includes provisions for extending service terms up to six months or extending the overall contract term up to five years. No government-furnished equipment is provided beyond
