The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 is seeking a contractor to provide shuttle transportation services between the VA Medical Center in San Diego, California and a specified off-site parking location. The procurement requires continuous shuttle operations using 8-30 passenger buses and ADA-compliant vehicles to transport VA employees, patients, and visitors, with service operating Monday through Friday from 3:45 AM to 1:00 AM and shuttles running every 15 minutes during both peak and non-peak hours. The contractor must maintain a fleet capable of handling an estimated daily ridership of 400 passengers with peak hour capacity of up to 60 passengers, accommodate 10-15 ADA passengers daily, and manage all vehicle operations, maintenance, drivers, and regulatory compliance. The solicitation has undergone three amendments addressing contractor questions and extending deadlines, with the final offer submission deadline set for August 6, 2025, at 1:00 PM MDT. All proposals must be submitted via email to Contract Specialist Felicia Simpson, and contractors must complete required documentation including vendor file forms and compliance certifications.

This contract opportunity is set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) with a total estimated value of $19 million over the potential contract period. The performance period spans from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2028, structured as a base year with two option years. Key operational parameters include an estimated annual vehicle mileage of 13,500 miles, with routes subject to potential changes due to ongoing facility construction at the VA Medical Center. The current incumbent operates using up to 8-30 passenger buses, though no designated parking spaces will be provided on campus for contractor shuttle vehicles. Performance will take place in San Diego, California, with the contractor responsible for providing transportation between the Jennifer Moreno Medical Center and the designated off-site parking facility, ensuring continuous service throughout the specified operating hours to support the healthcare facility's transportation needs.
