This is a Modification to a Previous Notice for a Pre-Solicitation RFI (Request for Information) regarding a Loopback Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) System Integrator opportunity. The Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center in Eatontown, New Jersey (contracting office zip code 07724) issued this modification to notify industry of significant developments in the procurement process. The solicitation number is 36C10B26Q0585, with the product/service code DA01 and NAICS code 541519. The original RFI response deadline was October 7, 2026, at 9:15 AM Eastern Time.

The primary purpose of this loopback modification is to inform potential contractors that a new, separate RFI (36C10B27Q0032) has been created for additional market research with a new close date of October 9, 2027, at 3:00 PM EST. Contractors are explicitly instructed not to respond to the new RFI under this loopback notice, and any responses or questions submitted will not be reviewed or considered. Previous amendments to this opportunity included updates to the draft Performance Work Statement (PWS), specifically removing language regarding cost escalation caps (15% above baseline), annual increase limitations, and bundled pricing structures that prevented cost validation. The VA anticipates issuing a full and open solicitation on SAM in September 2026. The point of contact is Contract Specialist John A Adamitis at john.adamitis1@va.gov.
