About this file

This is Amendment 0001 to Solicitation 36C24626Q1003 issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs, Network Contracting Office 6 in Hampton, Virginia. The amendment extends the quotation deadline from September 9, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. EDT to September 10, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. EDT, and provides responses to six vendor questions regarding specification and submission requirements.

The solicitation requires the procurement of Ventrac equipment, specifically a Ventrac 4520N mower (CLIN 0003, designated as Option 1) powered by a Kubota engine, and a KJ520 Ventrac Broom with an optional electric actuator (CLIN 0015). The evaluation factor is price only. Contracting Officer Jerry L. Mann clarified that OEM dealer/distributor/reseller authorization documentation is sufficient to satisfy the Original Equipment Manufacturer Letter of Authorization requirement, and that Section 508 accessibility compliance is not applicable to this non-ICT equipment acquisition. The specifications sheet and attached quote list detail all mower and attachment options available for the 4520N model. Offerors must acknowledge receipt of this amendment prior to the extended deadline through completion of required forms, acknowledgment on offer copies, or separate written communication referencing the solicitation and amendment numbers.
