100% SDVOSB SET ASIDE

This is a Pre-Solicitation Notice that the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) intends to solicit quotes to provide non-personal Initial Outfitting, Transition, and Activation (IOT&A) services for the Tampa VA Medical Center Community Living Center (CLC) Activation. This requirement supports VHA's mission by providing contractor support services to help bring the facility into full planned operations that will provide health care services to Veterans. This will be a firm-fixed-price contract with an estimated Period of Performance of (41) forty-one months.

Tampa VA Medical Center (VAMC) has been approved for a major 24-hour Community Living Center (CLC) lease with approximately 153,528 net usable square foot (NUSF) in the vicinity of Tampa, FL, including 1,050 parking spaces. The new facility would allow for a decompression of the Tampa VAMC by moving the current CLC off-site into a right-sized location and full implementation of the VA Small House model of care delivery.
