Quick Summary
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Network 21 Contracting Office is issuing a Presolicitation for the Modernization of Outlying CBOC Building Automated Systems in Guam and American Samoa. This requirement is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) Set-Aside.

Key tasks include:

- Integration of existing equipment controllers (e.g., HVAC, exhaust fans, solar PV, emergency power, electrical/water metering, space environmental monitoring) using open protocols (BACnet/IP, MS/TP, Modbus).
- Coordination with VA OIT for network connectivity and cybersecurity compliance.
- Provision of commissioning, training, and comprehensive documentation.

Key Requirements & Special Considerations
The BAS must integrate with a VA-provided central server in Honolulu, supporting secure remote access without requiring external cloud-based systems for core functionality. Installation activities must minimize disruption to clinical operations and be coordinated with facility staff. Compliance with VA Technical Information Library (TIL), VA Master Specifications, VA BAS Design Guide, VA Cybersecurity, and OIT requirements, as well as applicable codes (NFPA, NEC), is mandatory. Offerors should also consider the logistics of remote sites, limited on-island technical support, and shipping lead times.
