Statement of Work

Drain Treatment Services (BASE +4 Options)

1. REQUIREMENT:

Requirement is for a new Base +4 option service contract for drain treatment services at Columbia VA Health Care Systems (CAVHCS), Columbia, South Carolina.

2. BACKGROUND:

The Dorn VA Medical Center is a 216-bed facility, encompassing acute medical, surgical, psychiatric, and long-term care. The hospital is located in Columbia, South Carolina and provides primary, secondary, and some tertiary care. Annually, the Medical Center serves approximately 56,116 patients. Satellite outpatient clinics are located in Anderson, Greenville, Florence, Orangeburg, Rockhill, Sumter, and Spartanburg, South Carolina. This requirement is for monthly services to maintain and treat all discharge drains at Columbia VAHCS. Treatment of the drains at Columbia VAHCS is necessary due the condition of the existing drains at this facility. The drains are old and partially collapsed in some areas. If grease is not broken down chemically, the drains will develop grease clogs that cannot be cleared without jetting the sewer lines. The condition of the sewer lines is fragile, and jetting may cause rupturing. It is critical that grease discharge, particularly discharge from the canteen gets broken down chemically before clogs can develop and cause serious drain line/sewer line issues.
