Painting Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA)

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 1 is seeking painting services for the VA Boston Healthcare System's Providence VAMC located at 830 Chalkstone Avenue, Providence, Rhode Island. The contractor will provide comprehensive painting services including labor, materials, equipment, and permits for miscellaneous painting projects across VAMC-owned and leased properties, with work involving priming and painting ferrous metals, galvanized metals, concrete block, gypsum drywall, wood, pipes, conduits, and other exposed surfaces. Qualified contractors must demonstrate a minimum of three years of painting experience and comply with strict infection control procedures, environmental standards requiring VOC content limits and biobased material compliance, and hazardous materials handling protocols. Work must be performed primarily between 5 PM and 5 AM Monday through Friday, and anytime on weekends and holidays to minimize disruption to hospital operations. The responses to this sources sought notice are due by October 23, 2025, at 12:00 PM Eastern Time, and the VA intends to award multiple Basic Ordering Agreements to enable quick competition for future painting projects.

This pre-solicitation notice is set aside exclusively for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), restricting competition to qualified firms within this category. The solicitation number is 36C24126Q0032, classified under NAICS category 238320 (Painting and Wall Covering Contractors) and PSC category Z1DA (Maintenance of Hospitals and Infirmaries). No specific budget range, award value, or incumbent contractor information is disclosed in the available documentation, though the multi-BOA award structure indicates the VA's intent to establish multiple contract vehicles for ongoing painting requirements. The notice does not specify the total quantity of square footage or specific timeline for individual painting projects, as these details will be determined through task orders issued under the BOAs following award.
