About this file
This is a Presolicitation Notice for the procurement of a brush chipper by the Department of Veterans Affairs. The solicitation number is 36C24626Q0734, with a response deadline of July 24, 2026, at 10:00 AM Eastern Time. The contracting office is located in Hampton, Virginia (zip code 23667), with the point of contact being Contracting Officer John P. Harmsen (john.harmsen@va.gov, 757-722-7961).
The requirement is for a Morbark BVR16 brush chipper, specified as a brand name or equal procurement, for use by the Grounds Crew at the Department of Veterans Affairs facility in Salem, Virginia (a 280-acre campus) to chip and mulch wood debris during routine utility line clearing and vegetation management activities. The solicitation identifies the Morbark BVR16's unique characteristics that justify single-source procurement, including dual horizontal feed wheels with hydraulic lift assist, an infeed-mounted control panel, modular design for maintenance efficiency, a zero-clutch system that prevents engagement if material is lodged, a reverse pivot assembly for increased down pressure, and a side load anvil for quick adjustment. The product service code is 2420, with NAICS code 333112, and the notice will be archived 30 days after the response date.

DESCRIPTION
Brand Name or Equal Brush Chipper Morbark BVR16 The intended use would be to chip/mulch up wood debris when the Grounds Crew does routine utility line clearing, vegetation management, in and around a 280-acre campus. The Morbark BVR16 woodchipper has incorporated many consumer/customer inspired innovations that increase the unit’s efficiency and safety while reducing the average operating maintenance cost. This unit has been installed with improved drive belts and clutch discs creating a zero-clutch system. This removes the anxiety of engaging the chipper drum. Unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, with the reason no other supplies or services can be used: The Morbark BVR16 wood chipper has a dual horizontal feed wheels with hydraulic lift assist; Infeed-mounted control panel for increased jobsite efficiency; modular design makes maintenance and repairs fast and easy; the zero-clutch system monitors the drum speed and will not allow the clutch to engage if the material is lodged between the feed wheel and drum; reverse pivot assembly advantage for increased down pressure; side load anvil for quick adjustment and flipping of the anvil. No other woodchipper in the market offers these enhanced safety features and durability.
