J041--Kitchen Hood & Duct Work Cleaning Small Business Set - A- Side

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 12 originally solicited kitchen hood and duct work cleaning services for the Tomah VA Medical Center in Wisconsin. The procurement sought contractors to perform annual and quarterly cleaning of kitchen exhaust systems across multiple buildings, including Buildings 405, 409, 410, 411, 412, 455, and kitchen areas in Buildings 401 and 424, with all work required to comply with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 96 standards. Contractors were required to have field service technicians with a minimum of two years of experience in kitchen hood and exhaust system cleaning, and the contract included monthly electronic invoicing through the VA Financial Services Center. The evaluation process provided preference to veteran-owned small businesses, with additional preference given to service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses when other factors were equal. However, this solicitation has been completely cancelled as of June 16, 2025, with the original quote deadline having been April 28, 2025, at 10:00 AM CDT.

The solicitation was designated as a small business set-aside under NAICS code 561790 (Other Services to Buildings and Dwellings) with an estimated total contract value of $9 million. The contract structure included a base year with four one-year option periods, providing for extended service delivery over multiple years. The work was to be performed at the Tomah VA Medical Center in Monroe County, Wisconsin, with wage rates governed by Wage Determination No. 2015-4929 (Revision 27, dated December 23, 2024). The solicitation originally included a mandatory site visit scheduled for April 17, 2025, at 10:00 AM local time to allow potential contractors to assess the scope of work across the various buildings requiring kitchen exhaust system cleaning. No incumbent contractor information was provided in the available documentation, and the cancellation means no awards will be made under this particular solicitation.
