This is an amendment to a previous combined solicitation that extends the deadline for contractor questions. The solicitation number is 36C25026Q0889, issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office located in Columbus, Ohio (ZIP 43219). The amendment extends the questions receipt due date from 3 calendar days prior to solicitation closing to 4:00 PM EDT on September 8, 2026. The overall solicitation closing date remains September 10, 2026 at 4:00 PM Eastern Time. The contracting officer is Tim Garrity (timothy.garrity@va.gov).

The underlying solicitation is a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for air compressor removal and replacement services at the Marion VA Medical Center, 1700 East 38th Street, Marion, Indiana 46953. The service is classified under Product Service Code 4310 (NAICS 238220) and involves equipment, materials, removal, installation, electrical and mechanical connections, and startup services. This is not a small business set-aside. The RFQ was previously amended to clarify that limitations on subcontracting regulations are not applicable, that site visit attendance is optional (with RSVP deadline of August 28, 2026), and that equivalent compressors meeting specified horsepower, PSI, CFM, electrical, and operational requirements are acceptable rather than requiring a specific manufacturer model.
