Quick Summary

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), specifically the Network Contracting Office 20 (NCO 20), is soliciting proposals for a Firm-Fixed-Price Construction Contract to replace pre-1990 exterior windows in Building 1 at the Mann-Grandstaff VA Medical Center in Spokane, WA. This opportunity is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) Set-Aside. Proposals are due by April 8, 2026, at 12:00 PM PDT.

Scope of Work

The project, identified as Project Number 668-24-102, involves the comprehensive replacement of existing pre-1990 exterior windows in Building 1, the main hospital building, which spans nine occupied floors, a mechanical penthouse, and an elevator machine room. The contractor will be responsible for providing all supervision, labor, tools, materials, installation, O&M documentation, and a one-year warranty. Key aspects include:

  • Field verification of existing conditions.
  • Asbestos and lead paint abatement as identified in hazardous material surveys.
  • Phased work to minimize disruption to hospital operations, requiring a contractor-developed phasing plan.
  • Disposal of construction debris and hazardous materials according to VA and environmental procedures.
  • Compliance with detailed bid set drawings and specifications, including requirements for blast-resistant windows, detention window screens, and specific glazing (U-value max 0.21, SHGC 0.2-0.65, VLT min 0.32).

Contract Details

  • Contract Type: Firm-Fixed-Price Construction Contract.
  • Period of Performance: Approximately 483 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed.

  • Place of Performance: Mann-Grandstaff VA Medical Center, 4815 North Assembly Street, Spokane, Washington 99205.

Key Requirements & Considerations

  • Subcontracting: General Construction contractors may not pay more than 85% of the amount paid by the government to firms that are not certified SDVOSBs or VOSBs (excluding material costs). A certificate of compliance is required.
  • Wage Rates: Bidders must comply with the Spokane County, WA, wage determination (WA20260114) for labor costs.
  • Site Visit: A pre-bid walk-through was held on March 10, 2026. An updated site visit map is available.
