About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration, Veterans Integrated Service Network 23, seeks fire alarm system maintenance, inspection, and repair services at the Minneapolis VA Healthcare System, with proposals due September 21 and questions due September 14. No set-aside applies.
Place of performance is Minneapolis, Minnesota. The contractor shall provide comprehensive preventive maintenance, emergency repairs, system testing, and 24/7 emergency response capabilities across 19 buildings. The fire alarm system includes significant equipment inventory: Building 70 alone contains 5,248 area smoke detectors, 302 manual pull stations, 136 voice alarm channels, 300 horns and strobes, and 252 valve supervisory switches; Building 70 requires semi-annual inspections for area smoke detectors, while Buildings 222 and 224 are not connected to the main fire alarm control panel. The contractor must maintain current state and local certifications and licenses, coordinate scheduling with facility management to minimize disruption to healthcare operations, and ensure all work is performed by qualified technicians.
Amendment 0001, effective September 15, clarifies scope boundaries: major component failures requiring full replacement (such as HVAC units) are handled through separate contract vehicles, not included in the fixed annual maintenance price. Elevator technicians must be physically present during fire alarm system servicing in buildings 9, 10, 49/49A, 68, 70, and 78; facility-provided access alone does not satisfy this requirement. Contract structure sets a $1,000 minimum and $800,000 ceiling per individual task order, with funds obligated by task order rather than at award.
NAICS code is 561621, Security Systems Services (except Locksmiths). PSC code is J063, Maint/Repair/Rebuild Of Equipment—Alarm, Signal, And Security Detection Systems. Service Contract Act prevailing wage rates apply for Minnesota and Wisconsin counties (Hennepin County inclusive).
