About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Health Administration, Veterans Integrated Service Network 17 (VA VISN 17) is conducting market research through a pre-solicitation notice for the procurement of utility trailers to support the Central Texas Veteran's Healthcare System. The trailers must be customized to safely transport recyclable materials such as cardboard, scrap metal, and plastics. The VA is particularly interested in determining the availability of small businesses, including Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, Veteran-Owned, 8(a), HUBZone, and Woman-Owned Small Businesses, that can provide this service. Interested vendors are requested to submit estimated pricing and other information by July 16, 2024, which will be considered in determining the procurement strategy, such as set-aside or sole source.

The pre-solicitation notice has no set-aside designation, and the VA is seeking to establish sources to define the procurement strategy. The agency has not provided any information about potential incumbents or current contractors. The pre-solicitation notice does not specify an award value or budget range, but indicates that the intent is to procure four custom trailers to replace the aging fleet currently used by the Central Texas Veteran's Healthcare System.
