The purpose of this synopsis is to notify potential Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB s), in accordance with Public Law 109-461 requirement, of this projected forthcoming requirement.

The Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network (VISN) 16 has a requirement at its Eugene J. Towbin (EJT) Veterans Hospital located at 2200 Fort Roots Drive in North Little Rock, AR 72114. The forthcoming solicitation will require a General contractor to meet the project objectives and requirements and to provide the required outcome in terms of overall quality, timeliness, and documentation. The Contractor shall be responsible for obtaining and coordinating the services of all third-party Contractors performing other services on site and other entities as part of the contract to ensure the expected quality, timely, and desired product is in compliance with the accompanying Statement of Work (SOW). Contractor shall provide all materials, equipment, labor, supervision, and expertise necessary to perform general construction and alterations, necessary to fully complete the project as outlined in the (SOW), Drawings, and Specifications. This is an active medical facility that will require the contractor in concert with VA representative to mitigate the construction impact on veterans, patients, and medical employees during the construction process.

Abbreviated SOW:

The plan is to renovate 3rd floor of the southern H-wing of the EJT Healthcare Center, that constitutes approximately 13,599 sq. ft. of renovation space that is being upgraded to current spatial and finish standards for Domiciliary Units. There are several infrastructure spaces such as utility closets and chases that must be maintained as the facility is a multi-story building and relocating any of these vertical infrastructures would have a tremendous negative impact on the project budget. Patient Rooms will all have dedicated bathrooms and showers. The EJT Healthcare Center is four stories including a basement level. EJT is a Mission Critical facility and must maintain operations accordingly. Work to Develop Private/Semi-Private Bed Spaces for 3H at EJT is to comply with the required drawings and specifications.

Note: this is only an abbreviated view of the SOW. Please review SOW/Drawings/Specifications that will accompany the solicitation.
