About this file

This document is a Standard Form 30 Amendment to Solicitation and associated Questions and Answers for a Department of Veterans Affairs procurement. The solicitation number is 36C26226Q0262, issued by the New Mexico VA Health Care System in Albuquerque, with an effective date of January 30, 2026. Amendment 0001 extends the offer receipt deadline to January 30, 2026 at 11:00 AM MST to accommodate contractor questions regarding the procurement. The amendment clarifies that a site visit will not occur and that all terms and conditions of the original solicitation remain unchanged except as noted.

The Q&A addresses a chiller repair and refrigeration project involving a YORK 900-ton centrifugal chiller (Model YKM2MRH9-CWG3S, Serial SNDM-702130) with R-134a refrigerant. Key procurement details include: O&M manuals are available for review; Chiller #2 is currently nonoperational; refrigerant R-134a is not on-site and the contractor must procure replacement refrigerant lost due to identified leaks at the low-pressure drain and evaporator pressure seal; the contractor will stage materials in the chiller room of the boiler plant; the VA will provide cooling from three other chillers during the work; and the project is not tax-exempt. Heat exchanger lines do not require replacement, only disconnection and reconnection, and no miscellaneous parts line item is included.
