Z1DA--Project No. 610A4-26-500 - Fort Wayne Job Order Contract (JOC).

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Integrated Service Network 10 is soliciting proposals for a Firm-Fixed-Price Indefinite Quantity Job Order Contract (JOC) to provide simplified non-complex general construction services, maintenance, alterations, and repairs of buildings, structures, and other real property at the Fort Wayne Veterans Affairs Medical Center. The applicable NAICS code is 236220 (Commercial & Institutional Building Construction) with a size standard of $45.0 million. Eligible offerors must be certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs) listed in the SBA certification database at the time of offer submission and contract award. The government will evaluate proposals using a best value methodology with three evaluation factors: Technical Merit (pass/fail basis), Past Performance (rated on recency and quality metrics), and Price, with technical and past performance weighted more heavily than cost. Sealed offers are due by 10:00 a.m. EDT on May 6, 2026, and must include a completed SF 1442, acknowledgement of all amendments, technical proposal, past performance submission, completed price schedule, and all applicable representations and certifications. An amendment to the solicitation was issued on April 2, 2026, providing answers to Requests for Information Units and posting the price schedule.

This procurement is designated as a 100% set-aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses with no other set-aside designations. The contract has a five-year period of performance consisting of a base year plus four one-year ordering periods, commencing from the contract award date, and only one contractor will be awarded this indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract. The government has not disclosed an estimated contract value or magnitude, but the overall contract ceiling is $30,000,000.00 over the life of the contract with a guaranteed minimum of $25,000.00 applicable to the Federal Government Fiscal Year in which the contract is awarded. Contractors must provide two contract coefficients based on RS Means Unit Price Book pricing multiplied by the current City Cost Index for the facility location, with one coefficient for normal working hours and another for other-than-normal working hours. Bid guarantees of 20% of bid price (not to exceed $3,000,000) are required per task order, as well as performance and payment bonds for awards exceeding $35,000 and $150,000 respectively, both due within 10 days of award notification. The place of performance is the Fort Wayne Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
