Y1DA--VISN 1 Construction MATOC

The Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center in Austin is seeking construction services for a Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) within Veterans Integrated Service Network (VISN) 1, which covers New England healthcare facilities. The primary seed project involves expanding and renovating the Emergency Department at the West Roxbury VA Medical Center, with comprehensive work including mental health exam room renovations, HVAC system upgrades, and infrastructure improvements. Offerors must be certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) and will be evaluated using a past performance tradeoff method where technical capability is significantly more important than price. The solicitation requires detailed technical proposals, past performance documentation, and pricing submissions, with technical questions accepted until April 28, 2025, and the final proposal due by 5:00 PM EDT on May 14, 2025. Contractors must comply with Davis-Bacon wage requirements, provide performance and payment bonds, and complete mandatory VA privacy training.

The contract is 100% set aside for SDVOSB firms, with a maximum overall contract value of $1,000,000,000 to be shared among multiple Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract holders over a five-year period. The seed project is valued between $2,000,000 and $5,000,000 and will be completed within 480 calendar days, divided into eight construction phases to maintain hospital operational continuity. The project will occur at the VA Boston Healthcare System's West Roxbury Medical Center in Massachusetts, covering facilities in Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. Each IDIQ contract holder will receive a minimum contract guarantee of $1,000, with individual task orders not exceeding $50,000,000. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 236220 with a small business size standard of $45 million, and the government intends to award multiple contracts based on contractor qualifications and past performance.
