The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 17 seeks daily cleaning, disinfection, and quarterly deep cleaning services for non-critical reusable medical equipment, with proposals due August 26, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. CDT. The procurement is an SDVOSB set-aside, foreclosing competition outside that category.

The scope includes approximately 4,700 pieces of equipment across multiple categories including IV pumps, defibrillators, vital sign monitors, wheelchairs, and patient lift equipment, with an estimated 40 crash carts identified. Current staffing is five employees (three full-time, two part-time), with two to four staff assigned to day shift and one to evening shift. The contractor must provide all cleaning solvents and disinfectants and conduct ATP testing twice weekly (Tuesday and Thursday), with methodology and pass/fail thresholds established post-award. All contractor personnel must obtain PIV badges and pass security background checks.

The contract is firm-fixed-price, base year September 27, 2026 through September 26, 2027, plus four one-year options. The NAICS code is 561720, Janitorial Services, with a $22 million size standard.
