Z1DA--Cincinnati VAMC - Job Order Contract 539-24-500

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 10 is seeking to procure a Job Order Contract (JOC) for construction services at the Cincinnati VA Medical Center through solicitation 36C25025R0068. The contract will provide expedited, non-complex construction services, maintenance, alterations, and repairs for VA facilities using RS Means cost estimating data and coefficients. Key requirements include SDVOSB certification at the time of offer and award, submission of technical proposals and past performance documentation, and compliance with strict subcontracting limitations where no more than 85% of general construction work can be subcontracted to non-SDVOSB firms. The government intends to make a single award without discussions while reserving the right to enter discussions if necessary, with evaluation criteria prioritizing technical capability and past performance over price. The proposal submission deadline is 10:00 EDT on June 25, 2025.

This opportunity is a 100% set-aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), with the contractor required to maintain SDVOSB certification throughout the contract period. The contract has a guaranteed minimum value of $25,000 and a maximum total contract amount of $30,000,000 over five years, structured as a Firm-Fixed-Price Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity (ID/IQ) contract. Work will be performed primarily at the Cincinnati VA Medical Center location, with some potential work at the Fort Thomas location, and contractors must provide a Superintendent with at least three years of experience supervising construction projects involving more than 100 simultaneous projects. The contract will replace an expired JOC contract from 2019 and is designed to handle lower-dollar value construction projects with performance periods determined by individual task orders. Market research identified 3,328 potential SDVOSB vendors nationally and 266 companies within Indiana as potential bidders for this opportunity.
