Z1DA--Abate B219 Ceilings-Select Rooms

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration is seeking a construction contractor to perform asbestos abatement and ceiling replacement in select rooms of Building 219 at the Southern Oregon Rehabilitation Center & Clinics in White City, Oregon. The firm-fixed-price contract will involve removing existing acoustic ceiling tiles, replacing drop-down ceiling tiles, changing out lighting to LED, and installing new vent fans across four specific rooms totaling approximately 416 square feet. Key contract requirements include submitting a detailed action plan at least one week before work begins, ensuring all personnel have asbestos abatement experience, and completing the project within 90 days of the Notice to Proceed. Proposals will be evaluated primarily on technical experience (requiring 2-5 examples of relevant abatement work) and past performance, which are considered more important than pricing. Critical dates include a site walk conducted on April 10, 2025, with all questions due by April 16, 2025, and proposals due by April 28, 2025 at 5:00 PM PDT.

The solicitation does not have a specific small business set-aside, but does include potential preferences for service-disabled veteran-owned and veteran-owned small businesses. The project is categorized under NAICS code 562910 for Remediation Services and has an estimated contract value between $100,000 and $250,000. Work will be performed primarily during VA business hours (7 AM to 4:30 PM), with potential for weekend or after-hours work if necessary, though no work will be permitted on federally recognized holidays. The project will involve four specific rooms (105, 106, 108, and 109) within Building 219, and the VA will pre-clear rooms of loose objects and provide a staging area and dumpster location. Davis-Bacon Act wage determination for Jackson County, Oregon will apply to the contract, and contractors must comply with all applicable federal regulations and provide a comprehensive completion report upon project finish.
