About this file
This document is an Amendment to a Request for Quote (RFQ) for Valet Services at the Columbus VA Medical Center, issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs. The solicitation (36C25026Q7575) is a follow-on contract to the current contract (36C25021P1620) with Vet Pride Services, scheduled to start on 11/1/2025 with an anticipated award date of 10/1/2025. The valet service will operate Monday through Friday from 0730-1800, with core hours for accepting vehicles until 1800.
Key details include a prefabricated control booth with 30Amp electric service provided by the government, designated employee parking, and free parking for valet employees. The government has deliberately left staffing levels flexible, requiring vendors to determine appropriate staffing based on historical vehicle traffic data provided in Attachment D.4. Vendors must submit past performance references for Product Service Code M1LZ (Parking Facility Operations), with the government preferring at least three references from the past three years. The solicitation's response deadline is 8/29/2025 at 1:00 pm Eastern Standard Time, and vendors are required to acknowledge all amendments to remain eligible for award consideration.

1. What is the anticipated award date for this contract? In Section B.3, Performance Work Statement (p. 6), it is stated that the contractor “shall provide enough staff to meet the needs of the VA.” To avoid fluctuations in price and the risk of bidders underestimating staffing (potentially leading to performance issues), would the Government consider specifying the exact minimum number of valet personnel required during operating hours? This would help ensure consistency across proposals and enable more accurate pricing.
Response: No. the Government provided the estimated vehicle traffic and the vendor shall take the risk of providing the proper number of attendants to handle the traffic.
1. While Section D.4 (Historical Estimated Workload Data, p. 35) provides historic figures for vehicles parked/assisted, these numbers could be interpreted in various ways regarding staffing needs (e.g., one proposer may assume one fewer or one more attendant per shift). Would the Government consider specifying a required or recommended minimum staffing level to reduce ambiguity in proposal preparation and ensure bidders are pricing adequately for the Veterans’ needs?
Response: No. the Government provided the estimated vehicle traffic, and the vendor shall take the risk of providing the proper number of attendants to handle the traffic.
1. What is the anticipated award date for this contract?

1. The solicitation references past performance as an evaluation factor (Section E.9, p. 46) and requests past performance for the past three years related to PCS M1LZ. Is there a required minimum number of past performance references or contracts that offerors must submit with their proposal? If so, how many are required
Response: No. the Government would like to have at least 3 if 3 are available. If the offeror has not performed at least 3 past performances within the past 3 years of similar size and scope, then the Government will accept as many as the offeror can provide.
1. Will the Government consider conducting a virtual site visit (such as a video walkthrough or remote meeting) in lieu of or in addition to an in-person site visit for prospective offerors?
Response: A virtual site visit cannot be considered at this time.
1. The due date in the 1449 states 29 August, page 47 of the RFP states 31 August. Which date is correct?
Response: 8/29/2025 at 1:00 pm Eastern Standard Time.
CO’s 2 cents: If times ever a time conflict. The time on SF1449 takes precedence. But to be safe always use the earliest date. I apologize for the mix up I attached an re-issued RFQ to correct it. INTERSTED PARTIES SHALL USED RE-ISSUE SF1449 TO SUBMIT OFFER. Not doing so will eliminate from competition for award.
1. What time does the valet stop accepting vehicles into the valet system?
Response: Our core hours are Monday - Friday 0730-1800. Be prepared to accept vehicles until 1800
