The Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office intends to solicit proposals for elevator inspection services at multiple facilities in California. Annual inspections are required for 44 elevators at the Palo Alto VA Medical Center and include Category 5 (60 month) and Category 3 inspections to be repeated at subsequent due dates if within the period of performance, which is one base year plus four one-year options. Proposals are due by August 20, 2021, and the solicitation seeks a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business set-aside, firm fixed price contract with no subcontracting permitted. The contractor must be ASME-certified with five years of inspection experience and provide safety plans, inspection tools and weights, electronic invoicing, and equipment replacement recommendations.

The requirement is set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. Inspections will be for elevators at VA facilities in Palo Alto, Menlo Park, Livermore, Mountain View, and San Jose, California over five years. The pre-solicitation notice estimates inspections of 68 elevators initially with price schedules and inventory attachments listing details of 44 elevators at the Palo Alto VA Medical Center to be inspected semi-annually and annually, as well as on a 60-month cycle. Place of performance is in California.
