PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

654-23-1-6093-0001 CONEX BOX RENTALS

VA SIERRA NEVADA HEALTH CARE SYSTEM

Part 1

General Information

1. General: This is a non-personnel services contract to provide 654-23-1-6093-0001 Conex Box Rentals for VA Sierra Nevada Health Care System (VASNHCS). The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government.

1.1 Description of Services/Introduction: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform 654-23-1-6093-0001 Conex Box Rentals as defined in this Performance Work Statement except for those items specified as government furnished property and services. The contractor shall perform to the standards in this contract.

1.2 Background: Due to the Department of Veteran’s Affairs (VA) mandatory social distancing requirements because of COVID and moving staff around to accommodate this, various office spaces and storerooms at VASNHCS have been placed into use for this requirement. This has taken precious space away from storing various personal protective equipment, equipment (both standard and medical), and supplies (Med/Surg, Environmental Care/Housekeeping, and Emergency Management, to name a few). The VA’s requirement to maintain certain PAR levels for consumables also puts a strain on storage space. At this time, the hospital does not have the space available and renting conex/container boxes will help alleviate the strain and accommodate the hospital needs for a short time until a long-term solution is resolved.

1.3 Objectives: Rent 29 conex boxes for VASNHCS for the time listed on Sec 1.4, par 2,

1.4 Scope:

1. The contractor will deliver 29 conex containers to 975 Kirman Ave, Reno, NV 89502.

a. The containers will be 8’x20’.

b. The units will be delivered to the hospital and should be fairly clean on the inside with no visible rust.

c. Doors, latches, locks, and other mechanisms must be in good working condition. The contractor will be required to repair as needed.

d. The units will require the delivery dates to stagger (both dates must be scheduled in advanced, with a minimum of 4-day notification):

i. 14 or 15 units to be delivered first (i.e., March 1) to set up on hospital site. This will allow staff to clear out the items currently in the containers onsite and to coordinate the pick-up of the containers currently onsite.

ii. The balance of the units to be delivered approximately 14 days later.

iii. Note: delivery and/or pick-up may be conducted on a weekend or before/after hours to minimize any impact to traffic in the residential area or veteran parking. The cost must include this factor.

e. The contractor will ensure that their staff abides by VA/Federal policy:

i. Face masks are worn at all times.

ii. If during the week, staff must not park on the 1st level of the two-story parking garage.

iii. Smoking is not permitted at all on Federal Property.

f. Any service or repair on the unit may be done with a government purchase card, if under the micro-purchase limit or with a modification to the contract, if needed.
