VISN 19 Construction Services 2016-2021

Veterans Integrated Service Network 19 established a Master IDIQ on February 26, 2016, to support construction and facility maintenance across six VA medical centers in the Mountain West: George E. Wahlen VAMC in Salt Lake City, Utah; Grand Junction VAMC in Colorado; Eastern Colorado Health Care System in Denver; Cheyenne VAMC in Wyoming; Sheridan VAMC in Wyoming; and Fort Harrison VAMC in Montana. Ordering closed February 28, 2021; the vehicle is no longer active.

The portfolio spans 103 delivery orders with a combined potential value of $105.3 million and $103.9 million obligated (99% of capacity). Work performed includes general construction, alteration, mechanical and electrical systems, HVAC, roofing, demolition, interior and exterior finishes, site work, and specialized facility upgrades such as fire alarm systems, boiler retrofits, and hazardous drug room renovations. Recent orders show site prep for imaging equipment, pharmacy renovations, road and parking repairs, window and door replacement, and fire suppression upgrades across the network facilities.

GCH Construction Company and RHI LLC dominate the competitive field. GCH holds 29 orders valued at $41 million; RHI holds 35 orders valued at $32.6 million combined potential. Betance Enterprises, Inc. accounts for 17 orders at $16.3 million; MSC Design Build LLC, 9 orders at $9 million; and Hawk Contracting Group LLC, 10 orders at $6 million. These five firms capture 97% of awarded orders and 100% of combined potential value.

Set-aside distribution shows roughly even split between open competition and SDVOSB set-asides: 53 orders (51%) carried no set-aside, 49 orders (48%) were set-aside for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, and one order was SDVOSB sole-source. All funding originates from VISN 19 (Veterans Health Administration).

Task-order values range from under $100,000 for minor repairs and grab bar installation to $7.7 million for the PAMNS (Pharmacy and Medical Nursing Services) project. Typical order values cluster between $500,000 and $3 million. Orders awarded in 2020–2021 show annual velocity of 5–16 orders per year across 2017–2021, with 21 orders in peak years 2017 and 2019. Place of performance spans all six medical centers and subordinate clinics within VISN 19's geographic scope.
