100% SDVOSB SET ASIDE

This is a Pre-Solicitation Notice that the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) intends to solicit quotes to provide non-personal Initial Outfitting, Transition, and Activation (IOT&A) services in support of the Replacement Veterans Affairs Medical Center located in Louisville, Kentucky. This requirement supports VHA's mission by providing contractor support services to help bring the hospital into full planned operations that will provide health care services to Veterans. The intended contract type is an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) with a five-year ordering period.
The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Replacement Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) Louisville, Kentucky will represent the culmination of years of strategic planning, with utmost honor and respect, for the benefit of military veterans in the Louisville, Kentucky area.
This innovative medical center is being designed and configured to support the highest level of preventive, interventional, maintenance, and extended care to Kentuckian veterans. As a center of health and well-being, it will feature a multitude of primary care, specialty, surgical, and mental health services. As part of its comprehensive approach to health, the medical center will also facilitate geriatric and extended care, home-based primary care, and the Substance Abuse Residential Rehabilitation Treatment Program (SARRTP).
Though flanked by two divergent environs, an expressway and residential neighborhood, this 973,000 square foot complex on a 34-acre site creates its own, unique identity derived from the purpose set forth by project stakeholders. Its campus environment establishes the framework for a healing environment by integrating nature with architecture, a concept pronounced by the strategic interwoven design of nature and daylight throughout the complex.
The VAMC consists of four major components integrated into one comprehensive design.
VA Medical Center
East Bar includes Patient Care and Administration
West Bar includes Diagnostic / Treatment and Clinics
Laundry Component
Central Utility Plant (CUP) Component
North Parking Garage (6 stories) and South Parking Garage (7 stories)
