About this file

This is an Amendment of Solicitation/Modification of Contract (Standard Form 30) issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 23 on March 2, 2026. The amendment modifies solicitation 36C263 26B0016, issued March 2, 2026, for a project titled "Replace UST's & Leak Detection" at the Fargo Veterans Affairs Health Care System (Project Number 437-24-101). The contracting officer is Eric Reis, with point of contact Ben Woehrle (Phone: 651-293-3071; Email: Benjamin.woehrle@va.gov). The sealed offer submission deadline is March 31, 2026 at 2:00 PM.

The amendment's primary purpose is administrative and informational in nature. It provides contractors with questions and answers addressing contractor inquiries, a site visit agenda, and a site visit sign-in sheet. The amendment corrects Box 13 on Standard Form 1442 to clarify that the sealed offer due date is March 31, 2026 at 2:00 PM throughout all documents—addressing a noted user error. Additionally, the amendment adds two Veterans Affairs Acquisition Regulation (VAAR) clauses: 852.204-70 (Personal Identity Verification of Contractor Personnel), which requires contractors to comply with VA identity verification policies for employees with physical access to VA facilities or logical access to VA information systems; and 852.204-72 (Personnel Vetting and Credentialing), which requires contractor personnel to undergo background investigations commensurate with risk and sensitivity levels and mandates compliance with VA Directive/Handbook 0710 on Personnel Security and Suitability. All other terms and conditions of the original solicitation remain unchanged and in full force and effect.

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause – VA Information system is the same as information system and means, pursuant to 38 U.S.C. 5727, a discrete set of information resources organized for the collection, processing, maintenance, use, sharing, dissemination, or disposition of information whether automated or manual. VA sensitive information means all VA data, on any storage media or in any form or format, which requires protection due to the risk of harm that could result from inadvertent or deliberate disclosure, alteration, or destruction of the information and includes sensitive personal information. The term includes information where improper use or disclosure could adversely affect the ability of VA to accomplish its mission, proprietary information, records about individuals requiring protection under various confidentiality provisions such as the Privacy Act and the HIPAA Privacy Rule, and information that can be withheld under the Freedom of Information Act. Examples of VA sensitive information include the following: individually-identifiable medical, benefits, and personnel information; financial, budgetary, research, quality assurance, confidential commercial, critical infrastructure, investigatory, and law enforcement information; information that is confidential and privileged in litigation such as information protected by the deliberative process privilege, attorney work-product privilege, and the attorney-client privilege; and other information which, if released, could result in violation of law or harm or unfairness to any individual or group, or could adversely affect the national interest or the conduct of Federal programs.

(b) General. Contractor personnel assigned to work for or on behalf of VA must undergo a background investigation commensurate with the risk and sensitivity level designation associated with the work to be performed at the level indicated in the contract. The Contractor and subcontractors shall comply with VA Directive/Handbook 0710, Personnel Security and Suitability Program, which can be accessed at: https://vaww.va.gov/vapubs/index.cfm
