X1AA--Detroit Vet Center Succeeding Lease

The Department of Veterans Affairs awarded a sole-source succeeding lease to NY JEFFERSON LLC for a Vet Center located at Jefferson Village, 11214 E Jefferson, Detroit, MI 48214. The contract, identified by solicitation 36C25026R0008 and award number 36C25026L0003, was executed on May 22, 2026, for a total award amount of $274,476.15. The lease provides approximately 3,767 to 4,000 rentable square feet of space for a total term of 10 years, with the first 2 years serving as a firm period. This non-competitive award was justified under 38 U.S.C. § 8103(h)(1) and the Simplified Lease Acquisition Threshold, as market research indicated a lack of viable alternatives and competition would have caused unacceptable delays or substantial duplication of costs. The facility must meet strict federal standards for fire safety, physical security, seismic resilience, sustainability, and ADA accessibility, and it must not be located in a 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain. Additional requirements include a minimum of 25 surface parking spaces and compliance with Section 889 of the National Defense Authorization Act regarding prohibited telecommunications equipment.
