    This Pre-Solicitation Notice from the Department of Veterans Affairs outlines the requirement for qualified Architect-Engineering (A/E) firms to submit Standard Form 330 (SF 330) qualification packages for Project #590-25-108, which involves replacing the Nurse Call system at the Hampton VA Medical Center. The project is set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) and has an estimated construction cost between $5 million and $10 million. Selected firms will need to demonstrate their qualifications based on several selection criteria, including professional qualifications, specialized experience, capacity, past performance, and quality of construction period services. Submissions must include evidence of recent experience with similar projects and ensure compliance with VA guidelines. The final submission date is set for February 26, 2025, and no proposals will be accepted at this stage; only qualification documents will be considered for evaluation. The document serves as a formal invitation for A/E firms to express their interest and eligibility to perform the required services.
    The Hampton VA Medical Center is initiating a major project (Project #590-25-108) to replace the entire Nurse Call system facility-wide. The solicitation calls for architect-engineer (A/E) services to oversee site investigations, environmental surveys, and the development of construction drawings and specifications. The new design must enhance the existing system with modern capabilities, ensuring compliance with VA guidelines and maintaining a budget between $5 million and $10 million. Key tasks include comprehensive site analysis, proposal of new technologies for patient-staff communication, and adherence to infection control measures throughout construction. The project emphasizes safety, requiring thorough coordination with adjacent healthcare areas, including risk assessments. The A/E will provide detailed design submissions, participate in construction oversight, and ensure that final designs meet all specified standards. The overall timeline indicates that design completion should take 390 days, followed by procurement and construction services extending to 935 days in total. This undertaking underscores the VA's commitment to improving patient care through technology upgrades in its healthcare facilities.
    The document serves as a Past Performance Questionnaire and cover letter for firms responding to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) request for SF 330 submissions regarding architecture and engineering qualifications. It outlines the requirements for firms to provide detailed information about their past project performance, including specifics such as project titles, descriptions, contract numbers, and evaluation metrics. The questionnaire assesses the performance of the firm on previous contracts, focusing on aspects like technical competence, responsiveness, quality of design services, and overall management. Evaluators are instructed to rate performance on a scale from exceptional to unsatisfactory, providing a narrative for lower ratings. The completed questionnaires are to be sent directly to the designated Contract Specialist at VISN 7 Network Contracting Office. This process is critical for ensuring that the VA selects capable contractors with demonstrated performance records for the improvement and maintenance of utility systems, reinforcing accountability in public contracts.
