The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 2 is seeking a qualified contractor to perform urgent repair and component upgrades for automatic doors at the Manhattan VA Medical Center (Margaret Cochran Corbin campus). The solicitation 36C24225Q0960 requires emergency repairs to address mechanical failures, degraded sensors, and worn components across multiple buildings to ensure critical entryways function reliably and meet current life-safety and accessibility standards. The work will include replacing door operators, sensors, guides, roller assemblies, motor gearboxes, and integrating safety features for various automatic door systems throughout the facility. This is a firm-fixed price contract with a 120-calendar day period of performance scheduled from September 15, 2025 to December 15, 2025. Quotes are due on August 28, 2025, at 10:00 AM EDT, with labor rates following Service Contract Labor Standards for the first 32 hours and Davis-Bacon wage rates thereafter.

This procurement is set aside for small businesses, specifically service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSB), under NAICS code 238290 (Other Building Equipment Contractors) with a size standard of $22 million. The work will be performed at the Manhattan VA Medical Center campus in New York, covering multiple buildings and door locations that require immediate attention due to their critical nature for facility operations. The contract includes specific wage determinations for New York Counties (Bronx, Kings, New York, Queens, Richmond, Rockland, Westchester), with minimum wage requirements of $17.75 per hour for contracts entered into on or after January 30, 2022. An amendment was issued on August 21, 2025, adding nine additional Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses related to Davis-Bacon wage requirements that become applicable when repair work exceeds 32 hours. The solicitation does not specify a total contract value, but the urgency of the repairs and the 120-day performance period indicate this is a time-sensitive maintenance requirement essential for maintaining accessibility and safety standards at the medical facility.
