This is an amendment to a combined solicitation/Request for Quote (RFQ) for fire alarm system maintenance, upgrade, and repair services issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office (NCO) in Buffalo, New York. The solicitation, numbered 36C24226Q0191, is set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs) and covers three VA facilities: New York Harbor Healthcare System locations in Brooklyn, Manhattan, and St. Albans Community Living Center in Queens. The services required include annual and semi-annual fire alarm system maintenance and inspections, safety testing, labor for repairs during regular, overtime, and holiday working hours, parts procurement, and a system upgrade to replace an Edwards EST-3 panel. The solicitation uses NAICS code 561621 (Fire Alarm Services) with a small business size standard of $25.0 million and FSC/PSC code J063. The facilities comprise 26 total buildings across the three locations, with varying fire alarm systems including Notifier by Honeywell (ONYX Series) panels at Manhattan and some Brooklyn buildings, and Edwards EST-3 panels at St. Albans.

This amendment notifies all offerors and bidders that the solicitation resulted in no award, and the VA may resolicit the opportunity at a later date. Prior to this final amendment, the solicitation underwent multiple revisions, including extensions of the response deadline from January 28, 2026, to February 4, 2026, and extensions of the question deadline to January 26, 2026. The amendment clarifies that semi-annual fire alarm system inspections were reduced from two to one per option period, provides detailed device counts by building and campus location, specifies the fire alarm control panel manufacturers and models across the three facilities, and confirms that NICET certification is required for technicians performing the work.
