DA01--VISN 16 Real Time Location System Asset Tracking Sustainment Services

The Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center is seeking a contractor to provide Real Time Location System (RTLS) Asset Tracking Sustainment Services for VISN 16, a VA health care network. The services will involve maintaining and supporting the existing RTLS infrastructure, including project management, battery management, system maintenance, software updates, and help desk support for CenTrak and Infor LBI systems. The contractor will be responsible for performing preventative and corrective maintenance, ensuring system security, and complying with VA enterprise IT requirements. Responses to the Request for Information (RFI) are due by 3:00 p.m. ET on November 26, 2024, with vendors required to submit a 10-page summary of their technical capabilities, approach, and corporate experience. The government anticipates awarding a firm fixed-price task order to a single responsive and responsible contractor.

The contract opportunity is set aside specifically for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) under NAICS code 541512, which has a small business size standard of $34 million. The initial contract period will be 12 months, with potential for four additional 12-month option periods. While specific award values were not explicitly detailed, contractors will be expected to provide onsite work at VA facilities within VISN 16 and potentially perform some remote support. The procurement falls under PSC code DA01 for IT and Telecom Business Application Support Services. Interested vendors should note that this is a planning-stage RFI, and the government will use the responses to refine the draft Performance Work Statement before issuing a formal solicitation.
