NCO1 Construction Team 2

NCO1 Construction Team 2 operates as a secondary procurement liaison within the 241-NETWORK Contract Office 01 (36C241), supporting the Department of Veterans Affairs’ mission to deliver high-integrity healthcare infrastructure for veterans nationwide. Though not a primary contracting officer, this team plays a critical role in facilitating the acquisition of commercial and institutional building construction services essential to VA medical center operations. They contribute to the end-to-end procurement lifecycle—from requirement validation and market research to contract administration—ensuring alignment with VA’s strategic goals for facility modernization, environmental sustainability, and clinical operational readiness. Their acquisitions focus on construction-related services that maintain and enhance the physical infrastructure supporting veteran healthcare delivery. The team maintains consistent working relationships with a select group of qualified contractors, including EPERNAY DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION LLC, MCKENZIE CONSTRUCTION & SITE DEVELOPMENT LLC, P.D.S. CONSULTANTS, INC., L1 ENTERPRISES INCORPORATED, and SOUTH MIDDLESEX OPPORTUNITY COUNCIL, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for firms with demonstrated expertise in healthcare facility construction, site development, and specialized consulting services. The team fosters collaborative, performance-driven vendor relationships, emphasizing compliance with federal construction standards and VA-specific facility requirements. NCO1 Construction Team 2 exhibits a firm commitment to socioeconomic contracting, exclusively utilizing Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-asides for all its construction acquisitions. This policy ensures that contracting opportunities directly benefit veterans who have served and now operate as qualified construction contractors, reinforcing the VA’s mission of service to those who served. Their procurement activity is narrowly focused on NAICS 236220—Commercial and Institutional Building Construction—encompassing new builds, renovations, and critical infrastructure upgrades at VA medical facilities. They specialize in procuring services related to structural systems, HVAC, electrical integration, and ADA-compliant modifications, requiring deep technical understanding of healthcare construction codes and infection control standards.
