H245--Vancouver Boiler Emission Compliance

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 20 is procuring boiler emission compliance testing services for the VA Portland HCS Vancouver Campus. The contractor must perform comprehensive emission tests on three boilers in Building 3 to ensure compliance with Southwest Clean Air Agency (SWCAA) permit 19-3332 and 40 CFR 60 regulations. The testing requirements include three runs each of volumetric flow rate tests per EPA methods M1 and M2, gas composition tests for O2, CO2, NOx, and CO per EPA methods M3A, 7E and 10, water vapor tests per EPA M4, and TC calibration per EPA ALT-011. The contract will be awarded based on equally weighted evaluation criteria of technical experience, past performance, and price. The solicitation closes on August 15, 2025 at 12:00 PM PST, with the last day for questions having been August 1, 2025, and no questions were submitted by interested parties.

This opportunity is 100% set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), requiring vendors to be SBA SDVOSB certified at the time of offer and award. No incumbent contractor information or specific award values are provided in the solicitation materials. The contract performance period is 30 days after receipt of order, and the testing is mandated every five years by SWCAA to maintain operational permits. The work will be performed at the Vancouver Campus in Portland, Oregon, where the three boilers provide critical infrastructure support for laundry operations, sterile processing, heating, and hot water services across five buildings. Amendment 0002 confirms that the boilers have been previously tested and that test ports are already installed, indicating the infrastructure is ready for the required emission testing procedures.
