C1DA--657A5-25-107, Relocate Endoscopy and Finish Upgrade Same Day Surgery, MRN

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 is seeking Architectural and Engineering (A/E) services for the relocation of Endoscopy and upgrade of Same Day Surgery facilities at the Marion VA Medical Center in Marion, Illinois. The project involves comprehensive design services for renovating approximately 6,329 gross square feet of medical space, including updates to mechanical, electrical, plumbing, architectural, IT, and fire protection systems. Interested firms must submit Standard Form 330 (SF330) qualification packages by July 7, 2025, at 2:00 PM Central Time. The selected A/E firm will be responsible for design development, construction documents, and construction period services, with design completion required within approximately 180 calendar days. Evaluation criteria will include professional qualifications, specialized experience, capacity, past performance, location, reputation, and commitment to service-disabled veteran-owned businesses.

This opportunity is exclusively set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), with no current incumbents or contractors identified in the documentation. The estimated construction project magnitude ranges between $5 million to $10 million, though this represents the construction value rather than the A/E services contract value. Contract award is anticipated by September 30, 2025, contingent upon fund availability. The selected firm must design multiple deductive bid alternates equal to at least 20% of the total construction cost while maintaining full functionality of the base design. All participating firms must be registered in SAM.gov and comply with E-Verify requirements, and the project must incorporate sustainable design principles and full commissioning services.
