About this opportunity
The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for urgent electrical repair services at the Wilkes-Barre Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Pennsylvania. The contract was awarded to Cavanaugh Electrical Contracting, Inc. for $129,409.12 on August 6, 2025, under FAR 6.302-2 authority for unusual and compelling urgency to replace approximately 4,800 feet of 750Kcmil copper electrical cables in the main hospital's electrical system. The emergency repair was necessitated by insulation failure and observed electrical arcing that posed a critical threat to the hospital's electrical power supply for medical equipment and operational mission. The project was estimated to cost between $100,000-$200,000 and required approximately fourteen days to complete, with work beginning immediately due to the urgent nature of maintaining hospital operations. Market research identified only three potentially qualified electrical contractors within 26.1 miles of the campus, with Cavanaugh Electrical Contracting being located just 8 miles away, making it the most viable option for this time-sensitive switchboard repair project.
