Temporary Professional Staffing Services

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 is soliciting temporary professional staffing services to support the Engineering Service and Planning sections at the Long Beach Veterans Affairs Healthcare System. The procurement seeks to fill seven labor categories: Interior Designer, Junior Interior Designer, Medical Equipment Planner, General Engineer, Administrative Assistant, Program Analyst, and Drafter. Contractors must staff all positions at contract start with no phased or partial staffing options permitted, provide resumes and qualification statements for all assigned personnel, and ensure all work is performed on-site with no telework authorized. All positions are subject to Service Contract Labor Standards wage determinations for Los Angeles County, and contractors must provide workers' compensation insurance, professional liability insurance, and comply with extensive VA security and background investigation requirements. Evaluation will be based on price with special standards of responsibility and the government's best interest, rather than lowest price or best value methodologies. The proposal deadline is April 27, 2026 at 5:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time, and this solicitation corrects and amends a previous version posted on March 30, 2026, incorporating combined vendor questions and answers.

This is a 100% Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) sole source set-aside, with only SDVOSB concerns certified and listed in the SBA certification database at time of proposal submission and award eligible to compete. The contract encompasses a one-year base period from June 2, 2026 to June 1, 2027, with two one-year option periods, for a total budgeted contract value not to exceed $34 million with firm-fixed-price hourly labor rates for both regular and overtime hours. The procurement uses NAICS code 561320 (Temporary Help Services) and PSC C219 (Architect and Engineering Services), with contractor personnel considered key personnel requiring government approval for any substitutions. Contractors are subject to 50% limitations on subcontracting for both labor and direct costs, with no guaranteed minimums for labor hours. Performance will take place at the Long Beach VA Healthcare System in Long Beach, California 90822, with standard work schedules Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, and proposals should be submitted via email to daniel.kneizeh@va.gov.
