DESCRIPTION

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office (NCO) 6 intends to award a sole source purchase order to Millennium Sports Club at the Durham VA Medical Center in Durham, NC. The Gerofit Program at the Durham VA Health Care System (DVAHCS) requires a time and space from a commercial fitness facility large enough for an average of 60 Veterans (range is 45-90 /day) over a 2-2.5-hour block of time, on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings. The desired block of time is from 8:00 am to 10:30 am. The exact time is negotiable, but must be on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings. The facility must have existing space for floor exercises and Tai Chi programs, in addition to safe access to stationary and recumbent bicycles, treadmills, strength training equipment, and must be handicap accessible to include bathrooms. Must have ample parking for an average of 60 Veterans. Highly desirable that the facility be “senior friendly” as noted by the presence of other senior programming such as “Silver Sneakers”. The facility ideally is on a public transportation route and within 5 miles of the Durham VA Health Care System located at 508 Fulton Street, Durham, NC, 27705.

The Gerofit staff will be responsible for administering this exercise program but will need full access to space and equipment. Ideally the program will have access to stationary and recumbent bicycles, treadmills, strength training equipment, and an open area for floor exercises and Tai Chi classes. Space is requested, but not mandatory, for the placement of three upper body ergometers and other senior friendly equipment provided by Gerofit for use of our handicapped Veterans.

The prospective facilities should provide a proposal to include cost/month and information for technical evaluation factors described below. The proposals should be evaluated by the technical evaluation board (TEB) so the cost and other technical factors have weight of 50/50.

Period of performance will be base 4+ option year of service. Justification for this sole source procurement is in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b) soliciting from a single source. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes. No solicitation documents are available and telephone requests will not be accepted. However, any business that believes it can meet these requirements and possesses relevant past-experience and expertise may give written notice. Supporting evidence must be furnished in sufficient detail to demonstrate the ability to comply with the above requirement. Responses will be considered by the Government however, a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses of this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. NAICS Code 713940. Responses received by 10:00 am EST on Nov 10th, 2023, will be considered by the Government. Inquiries shall be emailed to Christian.rosadoramirez@va.gov. No telephone requests will be accepted.
