V129--Patient Assisted Parking Services

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 2 issued a solicitation for patient assisted parking services on July 15, 2026, with quotes due July 29, 2026, but announced closure of the solicitation without award as of September 16, 2026, with re-solicitation to be posted shortly on SAM.gov. The procurement is set-aside for SDVOSBs, limiting competition to service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses.

Place of performance is the Samuel S. Stratton VA Medical Center in Albany, New York. The contract includes a one-year base period (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) plus four optional one-year periods extending through September 30, 2031. The estimated value is $47 million.

Services require comprehensive patient assisted parking Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM, with peak hours between 8:00 AM and 12:00 PM. The contractor must maintain a 10-minute maximum vehicle wait time for both drop-off and pick-up, provide three to five attendants with staggered start times and one supervisor daily, supply all labor, equipment, uniforms, claim-check systems (app-based with paper backup), radios, cones, and supervision. Employees must hold valid driver's licenses and possess six months of healthcare parking experience. The contractor assumes liability for damage to all parked vehicles. Minimum liability insurance required is $500,000 per occurrence.

Offerors must demonstrate a minimum of five years of relevant experience and provide three references. Prevailing wage rates under Service Contract Act apply per Wage Determination 2015-4187 for New York counties. SDVOSB offerors are subject to subcontracting limitations: service contracts cannot subcontract more than 50% of government payments to non-SDVOSB or non-VOSB firms. Evaluation criteria include technical capability, past performance, and price, with pricing submitted on a monthly basis for the base year and each option year.
