About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 15 is seeking vendor information for refrigeration equipment installation at the VA Consolidated Mail Outpatient Pharmacy (CMOP) facility in Lancaster, Texas through a Sources Sought Notice issued April 3, 2026. This market research notice, not a formal solicitation, seeks capabilities statements from qualified vendors capable of installing two separate refrigeration systems: a 40-foot walk-in freezer unit (maintaining 0 degrees Fahrenheit) and a 40-foot walk-in cooler unit (maintaining 40 degrees Fahrenheit). Key requirements include firm-fixed-price turnkey installation by qualified licensed refrigeration technicians using only new OEM-compliant parts, compliance with OSHA safety standards, and work completion during normal business hours (6:00 AM to 12:00 AM Monday-Friday) without disrupting facility operations. Interested vendors must submit a capabilities statement not exceeding five pages by April 27, 2026 at 9:00 AM Central Time to Michael W. McAlhaney at Michael.McAlhaney@va.gov, including company information, SAM Unique Entity ID, business size classification, relevant past performance on comparable projects within the past three years, required licenses and certifications, and customer references. Performance standards require 100% compliance with OEM specifications, 95% schedule adherence, two-hour response times for unscheduled issues, and 24-hour complaint resolution, with warranties including one year on parts, labor, and workmanship, plus four years on parts.
This notice carries no set-aside designation and identifies no current incumbent contractors. The pre-solicitation documents do not specify an award value or budget range for either project. Key technical details include installation of new electrical infrastructure consisting of 480V three-phase 100-amp 12-circuit panels for the freezer unit, with power connections from existing 3-phase panels for the cooler unit, and mandatory backup refrigeration systems with separate evaporator and condenser units for the cooler project to provide redundancy. Both projects require placement of refrigerated containers on used trailers leveled flush with existing 9-foot by 9-foot dock doors, weatherproof flashing installation, and LED lighting integration. The contractor bears full responsibility for all permits (including City of Lancaster electrical permits requiring Contracting Officer approval), waste disposal, equipment transportation, lifts, and forklifts. This Sources Sought Notice does not constitute a binding obligation and future solicitation terms may differ from the draft performance work statements provided.
