About this file
This is an Amendment to Solicitation (Standard Form 30) issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs, Great Lakes Acquisition Center, extending the deadline for solicitation 36C25226Q0196 for Fire and Smoke Door Inspection Services at Jesse Brown VA Medical Center. The amendment extends the receipt of offers deadline to July 17, 2026, at 10:00 AM Central Time, and provides responses to vendor questions submitted during the solicitation process.
In response to vendor inquiries, the VA made two significant clarifications to the solicitation requirements. First, regarding the performance standard requiring an on-site supervisory person at all times, the VA confirmed that this requirement may be satisfied by a single NFPA 80 Fire Inspector Certified individual, thereby allowing a single qualified technician to serve dual roles without necessitating additional labor. Second, the VA revised the technical capability requirement for personnel from a State Licensed Master Electrician or Registered Journeyman Electrician credential to an NFPA 80 Fire Door Inspector certification or equivalent, recognizing that fire door inspection work does not involve electrical systems and that specialized fire door inspection credentials ensure proper quality control. All other terms and conditions of the original solicitation remain unchanged and in full force and effect.

Johnson, Ashley Contracting Officer
See additional Vendor Questions below:
Questions:
1) Applicable Performance Standards item 2 requires “The Prime Contractor to always have a competent supervisory person on site when any workers or sub-contractors are present.”
a. This scope of work only requires a single qualified fire door technician. Mandating an additional on-site supervisor effectively doubles the labor cost for a one-person task. Will the VA reconsider the requirement for this specific service contract to preserve taxpayer dollars and ensure fair, reasonable pricing?
- Yes, if they’re NFPA 80 Fire Inspector Certified.
| 2) | In the instructions to offerors, (2) Technical Capability, item c requires a minimum qualification as a State Licensed Master Electrician or Registered Journeyman Electrician. Fire door inspections, as stated in the SOW, do not involve an electrician of any kind as a fire door is an assembly, not an electrical system or component. |
| a. | To ensure proper quality control over the contract, would the government consider revising this requirement to an NFPA 80 Fire Door Inspector certification or equivalent to ensure the properly qualified technicians are performing this work. |
· Yes.
