Lease - Alaska - Kenai Outstation (Medical)

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 20 solicited a lease for medical office space in Soldotna, Alaska, with a proposal due date of June 25, 2026; this solicitation was canceled effective August 18, 2026, due to mission requirements.

The original Request for Lease Proposals sought 2,107 to 2,844 ABOA square feet of contiguous ground-floor clinical space for a Vet Center (Readjustment Counseling Service facility) on a 20-year lease with a 5-year firm term and Government termination rights thereafter with 120 days' notice. The facility was required to be modern, quality construction with stone, marble, brick, stainless steel, aluminum, or comparable permanent facade materials, located within a defined area bounded by Kenai Spur Highway and Kalifornsky Beach Road, and zoned in compliance with local law.

The lease was fully serviced turnkey, with the lessor responsible for janitorial services, basic cable, guest high-speed internet Wi-Fi (minimum 600 Mbps), security monitoring, maintenance, all utilities, and landscaping throughout the term. Lessor must provide 20 surface parking spaces (secured and lit). Facility requirements included modern accessibility standards, fire protection, seismic safety compliance under RP 8 standards, asbestos abatement, and Energy Star certification or statutory exemption. The Government reserved approximately 250 ABOA SF for vending under the Randolph-Sheppard Act.

The tenant improvement allowance was $436 per ABOA square foot. Award criteria weighted non-price factors (facility, site, past performance, and experience) as significantly more important than price, evaluated using a 5 percent discount rate and 2.5 percent annual escalation for operating expenses. Offerors were required to provide extensive documentation including GSA Forms 1364 and 1217, security unit price lists, financing evidence, fire protection and life safety evaluations per GSA Form 12000, seismic compliance certifications, sealed CAD floor plans, and past performance references. NAICS code 531120; PSC X1AA.
