Z2DA--589-21-211, Renovate Building 26 for Pharmacy, Phlebotomy, and Police Department

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 15, is soliciting a firm fixed-price contract for the renovation of approximately 5,700 square feet of space in Building 26 at the Kansas City VA Medical Center. The project, identified as project number 589-21-211, aims to align pharmacy waiting areas with current demand, improve and expand phlebotomy services, create rooms for future x-ray and CT equipment, and renovate the undersized police department space. The estimated cost for the project ranges between 5 million and 10 million dollars, with a period of performance estimated at 365 to 520 calendar days from the notice to proceed. This procurement is a total set-aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) under NAICS code 236220. Award will be based on a best value tradeoff process, where non-price factors, including the prime contractor safety plan and quality management program, are significantly more important than price. Because the work occurs within an active medical facility, strict Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) and Interim Life Safety Measures (ILSM) requirements apply, including the use of negative air monitoring. Prospective offerors must be registered in SAM and the SBA Veteran Small Business Certification database. Proposals must be submitted electronically to the contract specialist and include a technical proposal, a price proposal, a completed Standard Form 1442, a bid bond, and a certificate of compliance regarding subcontracting limitations. The government requires that the contractor not pay more than 85 percent of the contract value to firms that are not certified SDVOSBs. All materials must be delivered in original OEM packaging and adhere to specific labeling and environmental protection standards.
