About this file

This is Amendment 0002 to RFQ 36C25525Q0075 for Special Mode Transportation services at the Kansas City VAMC, which includes questions and answers as well as an extension of the proposal due date to December 13, 2024 at 3:00 PM CST. The solicitation is for ambulatory non-emergent hired car and wheelchair transportation services, including stretcher/cot service, with the current incumbent being Secure Medical Transport LLC under contract 36C25524D0059 valued at $562,000 for a six-month period.

The amendment clarifies that while drivers must have training in monitoring IV pumps and oxygen dispensing, EMTs/paramedics are not required. The contract uses VetRide for managing trip requests and includes base rates for trips within a 40-mile radius plus mileage rates beyond that threshold for both wheelchair and stretcher/cot transport. The pricing structure spans five ordering periods from 2025-2030 and includes charges for waiting time and cancelled trips. This is a 100% SDVOSB set-aside opportunity, and bidders must be physically located with vehicles registered in Missouri at the time of proposal submission. The amendment includes an updated Price/Cost Schedule reflecting these requirements.
