The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration, through Veterans Integrated Service Network 2, is seeking architectural and engineering design services for connecting the Canandaigua VA Medical Center's force main sewer system to the county sewer infrastructure. The scope of work encompasses designing a new lift station at the Baseball Field on County Road 4, connecting the VA gravity main from Brushwood Lane to the new lift station while bypassing the existing wastewater treatment plant, and connecting the lift station to the county sewer near Oliver Street. The design must include decommissioning of the existing wastewater treatment plant and outfall in accordance with applicable New York Department of Environmental Conservation codes, electrical requirements and backup generator specifications for the new lift station, detailed asbestos and lead surveys, and comprehensive coordination with Ontario County, the Town of Canandaigua, City of Canandaigua, railroad operators, and state jurisdictions. All designs must comply with VA Space Planning and Master Specifications, applicable building codes, and NFPA/Life Safety Code requirements. The formal solicitation (36C24226R0001) is expected to be posted on SAM.gov on or around November 18, 2025, with proposals due by December 19, 2025 at 11:00 AM Eastern Time, and contract award anticipated in December 2025.
This procurement is designated as a 100 percent Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business set-aside, limiting competition to qualified entities holding this certification. The estimated contract value ranges between $250,000 and $500,000, with an associated project budget of $3.5 million for the overall force main connection project. The design services must address a critical requirement to maintain operational continuity of the wastewater treatment plant throughout the connection process to the new lift station, necessitating a detailed phasing plan that coordinates complex timelines with multiple governmental agencies. All work is to be performed at the Canandaigua VA Medical Center in New York, and the selected contractor must demonstrate expertise in healthcare facility infrastructure design, municipal coordination, and environmental compliance. No incumbent contractor information is provided in the pre-solicitation notice.
