VAAL Campus Ph2B Bldg. 201 Medical Facility at Tacoma, WA

The United States Army Corps of Engineers Seattle District is preparing to issue a Design-Build, Firm-Fixed Price solicitation for the construction of a new medical facility at the VAAL campus in Tacoma, Washington, designated as Building 201. The project involves designing and constructing a roughly 74,500-square-foot outpatient medical building to serve multiple functions, including cardiology, gastrointestinal/endoscopy, pathology, pharmacy, infusion, sterile processing, surgical/endovascular services, and environmental management. The scope encompasses earthwork, site utilities, stormwater management, site circulation, landscaping, temporary facilities, and incidental demolition, with some medical equipment and systems provided by the VA. The new building aims to replace existing facilities during seismic upgrades and accommodate growing outpatient needs, with infrastructure designed for a 50-year lifespan. The contract is expected to be awarded under NAICS code 236220, with an estimated construction value between $25 million and $100 million. The solicitation will be publicly advertised and accessible via SAM.gov around August 6, 2025, with no hard copies or CDs provided. Interested vendors must register on SAM.gov, maintain current representations and certifications, and submit proposals electronically through the PIEE portal. The project will include federal requirements such as payment and performance bonds, Project Labor Agreement provisions, and compliance with FAR and DFARS regulations. The primary point of contact for questions is John Scola, and all inquiries must be submitted in writing via email.
