About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration (VA) is seeking vendors to provide comprehensive duct cleaning services for the Clement Zablocki VA Medical Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The Great Lakes Acquisition Center is conducting market research to identify qualified contractors capable of performing thorough cleaning of central fan systems, ductwork, and mechanical systems. Contractors must provide all necessary labor, materials, tools, management, and equipment to complete annual inspections, cleaning, scraping, degreasing, and fire retardant maintenance. Interested vendors must submit a capability statement via email to susan.pasholk@va.gov by January 2, 2025, at 10:00 AM Central Time, including detailed service experience, UEI number, and point of contact information. The opportunity is categorized under NAICS code 561790 for Other Services to Buildings and Dwellings, and work must be performed primarily outside normal facility hours of 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM to minimize disruption to hospital operations.
This pre-solicitation notice does not currently have a specific set-aside designation, though it notes potential limitations on subcontracting if future set-asides are implemented for veteran-owned small businesses. The solicitation is explicitly a market research exercise and does not guarantee a formal request for proposal will be issued. Contractors should be prepared to perform work during weekends and off-hours, with the primary objective of maintaining clean and functional mechanical systems at the medical center. While no specific budget range or award value is mentioned, vendors should be prepared to demonstrate capability to handle comprehensive duct cleaning services for a large medical facility. The contract appears to be structured with a base year and potential four-year extension, indicating a potential multi-year service requirement. Interested firms should carefully review the subcontracting limitations, which restrict non-similarly situated subcontractors to no more than 50% of the contract value.
