The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 10 is seeking construction services to upgrade the campus electrical system at the VA Northern Indiana Healthcare System in Fort Wayne, Indiana under solicitation 36C25026B0006 (Project No. 610A4-23-101). The procurement scope includes demolition of Building 16 and existing electrical equipment, construction of a 6,600 square foot addition to Building 1 for primary switchgear installation, and procurement and installation of three 600 kW standby generators, three automatic transfer switches (ATSs), and three new unit substations for campus electrical distribution. The contract is subject to prevailing wage requirements under the Davis-Bacon Act, with wage rates effective January 30, 2026, and requires compliance with numerous federal and VA-specific technical specifications covering electrical systems, building construction, information technology infrastructure standards, and commissioning protocols. Evaluation will be conducted on a sealed bid basis without discussion using a fixed-price methodology, with bid deducts evaluated in priority order based on available funding to maximize value within budget constraints. The original bid submission deadline of February 12, 2026, has been extended multiple times, with the current deadline set for March 5, 2026, at 12:00 PM EST, with virtual bid opening occurring one hour thereafter; the government response time for Requests for Information is 10 business days, and government review time for submittals is 15 business days.

This solicitation is set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB), and the contract includes optional bid deducts allowing contractors to propose cost reductions for items such as removal of spare breakers (Deduct #1), deletion of the Energy Monitoring and Control System (Deduct #2), transformer upgrades (Deduct #3), and additional equipment removals (Deducts #4 and #5). No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in the solicitation documents reviewed. The project timeline anticipates award issuance approximately 30 days after bid opening, with work performed at the VA facility located at 2121 Lake Avenue, Fort Wayne, Indiana 46805. Construction activities include both regular business hours work and required after-hours cutover activities coordinated with the Contracting Officer's Representative, with site visit documentation and geotechnical reports provided to bidders; key numerical details include three 600 kW generators, three ATSs, three new unit substations, a 6,600 square foot building addition, and demolition scope encompassing Building 16 and associated existing electrical infrastructure. The solicitation has been substantially modified through 10 amendments addressing bid schedule revisions, Request for Information responses, specification clarifications, drawing updates through Addendum 1, and contract clause additions since initial posting on December 12, 2025.
