J059--Elevator Maintenance Services Durham VAMC

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 6 is soliciting quotes for comprehensive elevator maintenance services at the Durham VA Medical Center in Durham, North Carolina. The contractor must provide all labor, materials, equipment, parts, and supervision necessary to service, repair, and perform preventative maintenance on the facility's elevators, including emergency extraction services and 24/7 callback support with response times of 1-2 hours. Key requirements include an on-site elevator technician with five years of experience and completion of an elevator apprenticeship program, along with 40 hours of weekly preventive maintenance services. The contract evaluation will be based on technical capabilities, past performance, and price. The original quote submission deadline of August 4, 2025, at 5:30 PM EST has been extended to August 5, 2025, at 5:30 PM EDT through Amendment 0001, which also provided responses to contractor questions.

This solicitation is designated as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-aside opportunity with no general set-aside used. The contract covers maintenance services for 18-19 elevators of various types and manufacturers across multiple buildings at the medical center, including passenger, service, and freight elevators from manufacturers such as Dover, Montgomery, Southern, Thyssen Krupp, Webster, GAL, OTIS, and MCE. The total estimated contract value is approximately $47 million over the five-year performance period, which includes a base year from October 1, 2025, to September 30, 2026, and four one-year option periods extending through September 30, 2030. The contract includes a $50,000 annual allowance for emergent repairs and parts, and the amendment notes that there was only one after-hours callback in the past year due to a pipe burst that flooded the elevators. All work will be performed at the Durham VA Medical Center facility in Durham, North Carolina.
