Quick Summary

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Network Contract Office 17, has issued a Solicitation (36C25726R0048) for the replacement of all exterior windows in Building 2J at the VA Medical Center in Dallas, TX. This project, estimated between $5,000,000 and $10,000,000, is a 100% Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) Set-Aside. Proposals are due February 3, 2026, at 10:00 AM CST.

Scope of Work

The project requires all labor, materials, and supervision to replace operable, non-operable, skylights, atriums, storefront, and glass at all levels of Building 2J. Work must comply with current building codes and energy efficiency standards, ensuring a waterproof installation. Key requirements include replacing skylight framing to meet wind pressure, matching existing window sizes and mullion spacing, and using anodized dark bronze frames with green tint glazing. Notably, Amendment 0005 removed the requirement for windows to be blast resistant. Pharmacy area windows require specific security measures (e.g., woven security mesh or approved films). Interior finish repairs are also part of the scope. A non-subcontractable Superintendent must be on-site during work.

Contract Details

  • Contract Type: Firm-Fixed-Price
  • Performance Period: 548 calendar days after Notice to Proceed
  • Warranty: One (1) year performance agreement (labor and material) plus manufacturer's warranty
  • Set-Aside: 100% Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB)
  • NAICS Code: 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction)
  • Magnitude: $5,000,000 - $10,000,000
  • Requirements: Bid Guarantee, Performance and Payment Bonds, Davis Bacon Act compliance. The contract designation has been updated to "General Construction."

Submission & Evaluation

Proposals are due by February 3, 2026, at 10:00 AM CST, submitted via email to nicholas.smith21@va.gov and Rhonda.richardson5@va.gov. Submissions must be in four separate, searchable PDF volumes: Technical Acceptability (5 pages), Past Performance (40 pages), Price/Cost, and Solicitation/Amendments/Certifications. An "Attachment 4 Itemized Cost Breakdown" spreadsheet must be completed and included. The RFI/Questions cutoff was January 13, 2026, at 10:00 AM CST. Evaluation prioritizes Past Performance over Price, with Technical Acceptability (EMR) also a key factor.

Key Amendments & Notes

Multiple amendments have significantly altered the solicitation. Amendment 0004 extended the proposal due date to February 3, 2026, updated the contract designation to "General Construction," and added the mandatory "Attachment 4 Itemized Cost Breakdown." Amendment 0005 removed the blast-resistant window requirement. Amendment 0002 changed the NAICS code to 236220. A second site visit was held on January 8, 2026, at 11:00 AM CST. Environmental testing (ASBESTOS ANALYSIS.pdf) indicated no asbestos detected. Comprehensive construction documents (DRAWINGS 100 PERCENT.pdf, STRUCTURAL CALCULATION PACKAGE.pdf, SPECIFICATIONS 100 PERCENT.pdf) and safety assessment requirements (VHA PCRA ICRA CATEX ILSM.pdf) are available.
