The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has awarded a series of Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) awards and delivery orders to Jan-Care Ambulance Of North Central W.va., Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business, to provide ambulance transportation services for VA medical centers in West Virginia. The largest IDC, valued at $25,749,000, was awarded in November 2019 and allows the VA's Veterans Integrated Service Network 5 (VISN 5) to issue multiple delivery orders for a range of ambulance services, including advanced life support, basic life support, and wheelchair van transportation, to support the VA's comprehensive healthcare programs for veterans in the region. Additional delivery orders valued from $1.7 million to $3.3 million have been issued under this IDC to cover ambulance services for the Clarksburg and Beckley VA Medical Centers. These fixed-price contracts do not have set-aside designations and have ultimate completion dates through 2025, demonstrating Jan-Care Ambulance's long-standing role as a critical provider of medical transportation services for the VA in West Virginia.
These contract awards align with the VA's original solicitation in 2019 for a fixed-price IDC to provide 24/7 advanced and basic life support ambulance services to transport eligible VA beneficiaries between the Clarksburg and Beckley medical centers and surrounding locations. The solicitation indicated that the contract would be set aside 100% for small businesses, with an estimated value of $15 million over five years of performance. Jan-Care Ambulance, the incumbent contractor, was recently awarded a $24 million contract to provide these services, underscoring the company's proven capabilities and specialized experience in supporting the VA's healthcare infrastructure for veterans in West Virginia.
