Renovate Interventional Radiology Suites (Construction Services)

This Special Notice, issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 8, concerns the renovation of Interventional Radiology Suites at a VA facility. The solicitation, numbered 36C24826R0038, is an amendment (Amendment 0005) that extends the proposal deadline and provides responses to vendor questions and Requests for Information. The project is titled "BB - Renovate Interventional Radiology Suites" (Project #573-22-103) and is administered by the Network Contracting Office 8 located in Tampa, Florida. The work falls under Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (NAICS 236220) and the Repair or Alteration of Hospitals and Infirmaries (PSC Z2DA). This is a construction services contract set aside exclusively for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses.

The primary purpose of this amendment is to provide clarifications and answers to vendor questions regarding design responsibilities, specifications, operational requirements, and technical details necessary for developing accurate proposals. The revised proposal submission deadline is April 24, 2026, at 3:00 PM EDT, and contractors must acknowledge receipt of the amendment by this deadline or risk rejection of their offer. Additional RFI responses not included in Amendment 0005 will be posted on or about April 8, 2026. Eligible contractors must be Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses to participate in this set-aside opportunity. Key considerations for bidders include understanding that the VA facility operates 24/7 with peak activity Monday-Friday, contractors must submit detailed phasing plans addressing infection control and life-safety measures, the A/E will provide commissioning services rather than the contractor, and certain design items remain the responsibility of the Engineer of Record while others are delegated to the contractor.
