Texas City New Replacing Lease

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration (Veterans Integrated Service Network 16) is seeking to lease approximately 37,125 rentable square feet (33,000 ANSI/BOMA square feet) of contiguous clinical space in Texas City, Texas to support a community-based outpatient clinic. The solicitation requires first-floor space with 135 on-site parking spaces located within a defined geographic area bounded by 25th Avenue N./State Hwy. 197 to the north, Texas Ave./4th Ave. to the south, Bay Street N. to the east, and I-45 to Hughes Rd. to Galveston Rd. to the west. The government will evaluate proposals using a best value tradeoff source selection process with technical factors considered significantly more important than price, assessing technical capability, operations and maintenance plans, past performance, design team qualifications, project management plan, and proposed pricing. Key requirements include Energy Star labeling, compliance with environmental and historic preservation regulations, detailed design intent drawings, fire protection and life safety certifications, and comprehensive security measures including physical access control systems and video surveillance. The proposal deadline is February 2, 2026, at 1:00 PM Central Standard Time, with questions having been accepted through January 12, 2026, and answers provided on January 13, 2026.

This procurement is set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB). The lease term is 20 years with 10 years firm, and the anticipated lease commencement date is January 1, 2027, with the government retaining termination rights after the firm term with 90 days' notice. The Building Specific Amortized Capital (BSAC) is set at $12.00 per ANSI/BOMA square foot, and offerors must submit separate pricing for shell rent, operating costs, and tenant improvements. No specific award value is stated; instead, the government will pay no more than the appraised fair market rental value for the space. The facility must accommodate specific clinical functions including primary care, mental health services, audiology, optometry, and physical/occupational therapy, and must meet extensive technical, security, and operational standards outlined in the VA Design Narrative and related exhibits. The place of performance is Texas City, Texas, with the facility requiring full-service lease provisions including janitorial services, maintenance, utilities, and security.
