The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network 9, awarded a purchase order to Semper Fidelis Construction & Development LLC on September 30, 2026, for AHU refurbishment at a ceiling value of $180,000, under a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business set-aside. The awardee is an SDVOSB and veteran-owned small business.
Work is performed at Alvin C. York VA Medical Center in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. The scope covers refurbishment of nine air handling units, including inspection, coil restoration via superheated water and probiotic sanitization, floor and wall sealing, blower refurbishment, and testing and commissioning. A three-layer composite coating system with antimicrobial and fire-barrier properties is required. The contractor must demonstrate minimum five years' experience with AHU refurbishments and provide a ten-year labor and workmanship warranty with 24-hour response time for critical failures. Prevailing wage applies.
Performance runs through December 14, 2026, with work scheduled nights and weekends for most units and coordinated daytime outages for Building 11 to maintain patient care continuity. Amendment 0003 restricts subcontracting: the SDVOSB prime may not pay more than 75 percent of the government payment to non-VIP-listed SDVOSB or VOSB subcontractors, excluding materials.
