The procurement is a total set-aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses.

Place of performance encompasses 20 facility locations across Florida and Georgia, including the main Malcolm Randall VAMC in Gainesville (1601 SW Archer Rd, Gainesville, FL 32608), Lake City VAMC, and multiple outpatient clinics and community-based outpatient clinics.

Safety training must be provided to VA personnel upon award and annually thereafter. Monthly reports with manifests and certificates of destruction are required.
