About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network (VISN) 16, is procuring construction services to install thermostatic mixing valves (TMV) for anti-scald protection at two Veterans healthcare facilities in Arkansas. The scope of work involves adding TMVs to plumbing fixtures where patients and staff access water from the potable hot water distribution system at the John L. McClellan Memorial Veterans Hospital Building 1 in Little Rock and the Eugene J. Towbin Memorial Veterans Hospital Buildings 170 and 190 in North Little Rock. Contractors must perform work in accordance with detailed plans and specifications, coordinate with facility staff to minimize disruptions, and adhere to strict infection control protocols while working in active healthcare environments. The evaluation will use a Past Performance-Price Tradeoff method, with past performance weighted as significantly more important than price, requiring offerors to submit technical proposals demonstrating relevant experience and separate pricing volumes. The current proposal submission deadline is September 3, 2025, at 4:00 PM CDT, following multiple amendments that extended the original due date and provided responses to contractor questions.

This solicitation is designated as a 100% set-aside exclusively for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs) under NAICS code 236220 with a small business size standard of $45 million. The estimated project value ranges between $2 million and $5 million, reflecting the substantial scope of installing anti-scald protection systems across multiple hospital buildings. Qualified offerors must be verified in the Small Business Administration's Veteran Small Business Certification database and registered in the System for Award Management (SAM). The contract includes a performance period of 365 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with work potentially requiring after-hours scheduling between 7:00 PM and 5:00 AM to minimize patient care disruptions. Performance will occur at both the Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System facilities: the Eugene J. Towbin Memorial Veterans Hospital at 2200 Fort Roots Drive, North Little Rock, Arkansas 72114, and the John L. McClellan Memorial Veterans Hospital at 4300 West 7th Street, Little Rock, Arkansas 72205.
