Z2DA--589A7-23-315, Prepare Site for Fluoroscope

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 is soliciting proposals for site preparation work to install a fluoroscope at the Wichita VA Medical Center. This commercial and institutional building construction project involves significant renovation work including HVAC system modifications, wall and floor preparation, patient lift removal and reinstallation, and radiation protection measures for the medical facility's fluoroscope room. The procurement will utilize a Best Value Trade-Off selection process with five non-price evaluation factors that are significantly more important than price: Prime Contractor Construction Experience, Project Execution, Key Personnel Experience, Prime Contractor's Safety Plan, and Past Performance. Contractors must submit technical proposals, price proposals, original bid bonds, and surety letters detailing bonding capabilities. The proposal submission deadline is July 8, 2025 at 3:00 PM Central Time, following a pre-proposal site visit that was conducted on June 4, 2025.

This opportunity is 100% set-aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, with multiple potential contractors having attended the pre-proposal conference including Floyd Construction, AM Interior Systems, MST, BCS, and Shelley Electric. The project cost is estimated between $500,000 and $1,000,000, requiring the prime contractor to perform a minimum of 15% of the labor work. The performance period is established at 196 calendar days, during which the contractor must maintain facility operations throughout the construction process. Work will be performed at the VA Medical Center located in Wichita, Kansas, with specific requirements for managing construction activities in an active medical facility environment while ensuring patient care operations continue uninterrupted.
