About this file
This is a Special Notice announcing the Department of Veterans Affairs' intent to award a sole source contract for Triennial Electrical Breaker Testing and Repairs services. The solicitation number is 36C24626Q0839, with a response deadline of August 11, 2026 at 10:00 AM Eastern Time. The contracting office is located in Hampton, Virginia (ZIP code 23667), and the point of contact is Contract Specialist LaKeva Cousins at lakeva.cousins@va.gov. The service falls under NAICS Code 238210 (Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors) and Product Service Code H961 (Other Quality Control, Testing, and Inspection – Electrical Wire and Power Distribution Equipment).
The VA has identified J&B Hartigan as the sole source provider, justifying this determination based on their specialized capability to perform high voltage testing onsite without removing breakers for offsite testing. The government asserts that alternative suppliers would result in unacceptable cost duplication, operational disruption, and potential delays impacting patient care continuity. This is a follow-on action to a previous contract. Although this is not a competitive solicitation, interested businesses may submit written notice by August 4, 2026 at 10:00 AM EDT if they believe they can provide the required services. All responses must include company name, address, point of contact, phone number, SAM UEI Number, and manufacturer authorization documentation (authorization letter, authorized dealer, distributor, or reseller documentation). The government reserves the right to determine whether to compete the acquisition based on responses received.

DESCRIPTION
The Department of Veterans Affairs intends to issue a sole source award for Triennial Electrical Testing and Maintenance services. The Government has determined that the proposed vendor is the only authorized provider capable of performing the required high voltage testing.
The Triennial electrical testing is a specialized high voltage service. J&B Hartigan performs all work onsite and does not remove facility breakers for offsite testing. Removing, transporting, testing, and reinstalling breakers is a lengthy process that would create significant duplication of cost and operational disruption. Utilizing any other supplier would result in costs that cannot be recovered through competition and would introduce delays that impact continuity of patient care. This requirement is also a follow-on action to a previous contract.
This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes. Market research and previous acquisition history have determined that these services can only be obtained from a single source without unacceptable duplication of cost or adverse impact to patient care operations.
No solicitation documents are available, and telephone requests will not be accepted.
However, any business that believes it can provide the services for the Triennial Electrical Testing & Maintenance may give written notice to lakeva.cousins@va.gov, by 10:00am EDT on August 4, 2026. Supporting evidence must be furnished in sufficient detail to demonstrate the ability to comply with the above requirement. Interested and capable respondents are requested to provide the information below. All responses to this notice shall include: company name, address, point of contact, phone number, System for Award (SAMs) Unique Entity Id Number (UEI), manufacturer authorization letter, authorized dealer, authorized distributor, or authorized reseller documentation. 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: 238210 – Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors.
PSC: H961 – Other Quality Control, Testing, and Inspection – Electrical Wire and Power Distribution Equipment.
