The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration (VHA) is seeking architectural and engineering services to renovate Building 135, a 26,988 square foot administrative space at the Hampton VA Medical Center. The renovation project involves comprehensive interior demolition and replacement of architectural finishes, HVAC systems, plumbing, and electrical systems to meet current VA design standards and codes. Interested firms must submit a Standard Form 330 (SF330) electronically by April 17, 2025, at 14:00 Eastern Time. The evaluation will focus on eight selection criteria, including professional qualifications, specialized experience, past performance, capacity to accomplish work, and small business commitment. Firms will be assessed using a detailed Past Performance Questionnaire that rates their capabilities across 21 factors on a 5-point scale.

The contract is 100% set-aside for Service-Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) firms under NAICS code 541330 (Engineering Services). The estimated construction budget ranges from $10-20 million, with the total contract period spanning 890 calendar days, including 345 days for design completion, 180 days for procurement, and 365 days for construction period services. The VA will conduct discussions with at least three of the most highly qualified firms before making a final selection for a firm-fixed-price contract. Contractors will be required to comply with VA Technical Information Library standards and complete an Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) to ensure proper safety protocols during the renovation. Security badge requirements are minimal, with contractors only needing to obtain flash badges for the project and being exempt from standard background investigations.
