Pacific Continental Midwest Grounds & Cemetery Equipment

The Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration is conducting market research to identify qualified small business vendors capable of supplying grounds maintenance and cemetery operations equipment for the Pacific, Continental, and Midwest District National Cemeteries. The VA seeks to establish multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) for equipment including tractors, plows, trailers, excavators, loaders, forklifts, commercial mowers, and utility vehicles. All equipment must be new and unused, meeting original equipment manufacturer specifications with full warranties, and vendors must demonstrate capability to deliver to the specified regional locations. While specific evaluation criteria have not been detailed in the pre-solicitation notice, the procurement emphasizes the requirement for vendors to submit responses in PDF format limited to 10 pages. Interested vendors must submit their responses by December 28, 2025, to Brian Trahan via email.

This pre-solicitation is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside with specific preference for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) and Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (VOSB). The solicitation does not identify any current incumbents or existing contractors. No specific contract award values or budget ranges have been disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, and the VA has not committed to issuing a formal solicitation or awarding any contracts based on this market research exercise. The procurement falls under NAICS code 333120 (Construction Machinery Manufacturing) and PSC code 3895 (Miscellaneous Construction Equipment), indicating the government's focus on identifying multiple equipment suppliers across the specified regions.
