Z2DA--614-23-103 - Replace Old Roofing Buildings 1, 1A, 5 & 7

The Department of Veterans Affairs is awarding a Firm Fixed Price contract under solicitation number 36C24926R0044 to replace the roofing systems on Buildings 1, 1A, 5, and 7 at the Lt Col Luke Weathers Jr VA Medical Center in Memphis, Tennessee. This procurement is a 100% set-aside exclusively for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) operating under NAICS code 238160, with an estimated contract value between five and ten million dollars. The scope of work includes the complete removal and installation of new roofing systems, along with demolition, insulation, and integration of metal components such as coping, flashing, and trim that meet ANSI/SPRI, ASTM, and SMACNA standards. All work must be performed in compliance with stringent safety, security, and environmental protocols, including OSHA training requirements, site access controls, photography restrictions, and adherence to federal security prohibitions under FAR 52.240-90. Contractors are required to submit technical and price proposals electronically by 1:00 PM CDT on April 3, 2026, with a mandatory site visit scheduled for March 12, 2026, and must have completed comparable roofing projects at healthcare or VA facilities within the last seven years. The evaluation process follows a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) methodology, meaning technical acceptability is determined first, and only the lowest-priced proposal that meets all mandatory criteria will be selected. Offerors must demonstrate extensive relevant experience including projects over $2 million or 100,000 square feet, coordination with mechanical contractors and crane operations, work in occupied facilities, and experience with multiple roofing types and lightning protection systems. Key personnel must have direct experience managing similar VA roofing projects, and past performance will be assessed using standardized questionnaires that require ratings on timeliness, quality, and schedule adherence—failure on any single sub-factor results in disqualification. Contractors must also comply with prevailing wage rates established under Wage Determination TN20260200, maintain an acceptable OSHA record with current 300 and 300a forms, and provide an Insurance Experience Modification Rate. Additionally, the prime contractor must self-perform at least 25% of the contract value using direct personnel or verified SDVOSB subcontractors, and all materials must be delivered in original, un
