J056--Operating Room Floor Repairs

The Department of Veterans Affairs Gulf Coast Veterans Healthcare System has issued solicitation 36C25625Q1224 for Operating Room Floor Repairs, specifically seeking small businesses to perform spot repairs of seamless vinyl floors in four operating rooms at their Biloxi, Mississippi facility. The work involves repairing approximately 350 square feet of welded seamless sheet vinyl flooring across four operating rooms, with specific areas ranging from 30-163 square feet per room, using Mannington Oyster White/15101 BioSpec pattern flooring to match existing specifications. Contractors must demonstrate competency in installing welded seamless sheet vinyl flooring, maintain OSHA 10 and 30-hour training certification, comply with strict infection control requirements, and follow VA medical center protocols for working in sterile environments. The solicitation will be evaluated using FAR 13.106 Comparative Analysis method, considering technical capability, past performance, and price, with offerors required to submit three to five past performance references from recent and relevant projects completed within the past five years. Questions regarding the solicitation were due by 12:00 PM CT on July 31, 2025, with quotes due by 12:00 PM CT on August 7, 2025.

This procurement is set aside exclusively for small businesses under NAICS code 238330 (Flooring Contractors), with no current incumbent contractor identified in the documentation. While one document references a total estimated value of $19 million, this appears to be an error as the actual scope involves only 350 square feet of floor repairs across four operating rooms, suggesting a much smaller contract value. The work must be performed at the VA facility in Building 30 in Biloxi, Mississippi, with strict scheduling constraints requiring work to occur between 7:30 AM and 4:00 PM, Monday through Friday, and only one operating room available for repairs at a time to maintain medical facility operations. Contractors must comply with prevailing wage requirements under the Service Contract Act for Harrison County, Mississippi, and adhere to immigration compliance certifications as part of their contractor obligations. The project timeline and specific start date will be determined upon contract award, with work scheduled around the operational needs of the medical facility.
