The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 17 is procuring replacement of Variable Air Volume (VAV) boxes in Building 60 at the Dallas VA Medical Center. The project involves replacing 76 existing VAV boxes with new fan-powered units across Wings A and B, including demolition, plumbing work, electrical connections, installation of new flexible ductwork, and coordination with existing Siemens control systems. Contractors must comply with ICRA Level IV infection control containment requirements, follow strict safety protocols including lead-based paint and asbestos management procedures, and work within the constraints of an active healthcare facility during business hours only (Monday-Friday, 9:00 AM - 4:30 PM). A mandatory site visit was scheduled for May 20, 2025, with Request for Information submissions due by May 27, 2025, and final proposals due by June 20, 2025 at 1:00 PM CT. The solicitation has undergone multiple amendments, with the most recent extending the proposal deadline and providing responses to contractor questions.

This opportunity is designated as a total set-aside exclusively for certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) under NAICS code 238220 (Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors). The project value is estimated between $500,000 and $1,000,000, with a performance period of 120 days after Notice to Proceed. The work will be performed at the Dallas VA Medical Center located at 4500 S. Lancaster Road in Dallas, Texas, specifically within Building 60's Community Living Center, which is approximately 90,000 square feet and was originally constructed in 1984. Contractors must be registered and verified in the Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS) system by SBA.gov to be eligible for award, and the project requires careful phasing to minimize disruption to ongoing medical facility operations. The solicitation includes comprehensive environmental documentation addressing asbestos-containing materials and lead-based paint concerns identified in facility surveys.
