The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 2 seeks a temporary 800 HP fire-tube boiler rental with maintenance and repair services for VA Hudson Valley Healthcare System Montrose Campus, with quotations due October 21, 2026 at 2:00 PM Eastern Time. A mandatory site visit is scheduled October 19, 2026 at 10:00 AM at Franklin Delano Roosevelt Hospital, Building 16 Engineering Conference Room, 2094 Albany Post Road, Montrose, NY 10548.
Place of performance is Montrose, NY. The boiler must be installed by November 1, 2026 and ready for service by December 1, 2026, positioned on the east side of the plant near Building 24.

The unit must operate on both natural gas and #2 oil without burner modifications, meeting a 9 PPM NOx emissions requirement (though a 30 PPM unit is acceptable as a temporary solution). The Government furnishes fuel; the vendor provides the boiler, installation, and all necessary connections including 3-inch gas piping, 1-inch oil piping, electrical service to a 250-amp breaker approximately 200 feet away, 10-inch insulated steam piping with welding and pressure testing, and 6-inch feedwater piping with heat tracing maintained at minimum 225°F. Monthly maintenance includes minimum 10 hours per month with weekly checkups, two internal inspection reports, and training for boiler plant personnel. All work must comply with ASME standards, NFPA codes, VA specifications, and the VHA Safety Device and Testing Manual. The rental period runs through March 31, 2027 with an option to extend if the VA's boiler repair project extends beyond the expected completion date. NAICS code is 238220; PSC is W045. Evaluation weighs technical capability at 40%, past performance with three relevant federal or commercial references at 30%, and price at 30%. This is not a small business set-aside.
