The VA Network Contracting Office 20 plans to hire a contractor to remodel the Human Resources side of Building 17 at the Roseburg VA medical center in Oregon: new walls, paint, ceilings, flooring and two restrooms, in 3 to 4 phases. This is a presolicitation for a 100% SDVOSB set-aside, one firm-fixed-price award, magnitude $250,000 to $500,000, with the RFP anticipated in September 2026.
Things to watch
- Notice and SOW disagree on the Limited Notice to Proceed length. The notice says about 30 days for submittals; the SOW says a maximum of 90 calendar days, which changes your schedule planning.
The LNTP will be issued for a maximum of 90 calendar days for submittals to be issued and approved
- Asbestos and lead paint work in an occupied medical campus. Suspected asbestos materials require abatement and lead paint requires encapsulation, which needs qualified subcontractors and extra cost.
Ceiling tiles, carpet, wall base trim and flooring are suspected asbestos containing material, Asbestos abatement will be required
- Bonds and bid guarantee required. Bid guarantee of at least 20 percent plus 100% payment and performance bonds can be hard for a small firm to get on a job this size.
The payment bond and performance bond shall be 100% of the bid price.
- Phased work and heavy VA coordination. Expect 3 to 4 phases, weekly meetings, furniture moves and interim life-safety measures while the office stays in use.
Expect a 3 to 4 phase approach
- Pre-bid site visit mentioned. The documents refer to a pre-bid site visit; the presolicitation does not say whether attendance is required, so check the solicitation.
More information about the LNTP will be available on the solicitation and pre-bid site visit.
