The Department of Veterans Affairs, through its Network Contracting Office 21 (NCO 21), has issued a presolicitation notice (No. 36C26126R0049) for a significant design-build construction project at the Fresno VA Medical Center, located at 2615 East Clinton Avenue, Fresno, CA 93703-2223. This initiative, identified as Project No. 570-23-223, seeks to renovate the first floor of Building 1 to establish an Acute Respiratory Clinic (ARC) that will enhance the facility’s capacity to respond to both routine and emergent respiratory healthcare needs. The primary objective of this procurement is to transform existing space at the main hospital’s front into a dedicated clinic suite. The renovated area will feature a secondary front entrance, enabling the clinic to operate as a separate, controlled-access suite. This design is intended to support dual functionality: under normal conditions, the space will serve as an expansion of Primary Care (PC) or as a procedure area; during periods of heightened respiratory illness activity, such as seasonal influenza or future pandemics, the suite can be rapidly isolated for triage and treatment, with a dedicated patient entrance and a negative pressure HVAC system to ensure infection control. The project’s scope encompasses all necessary renovations to achieve these outcomes, as detailed in the forthcoming statement of work. The anticipated period of performance for this project is approximately 224 calendar days from the issuance of the Notice to Proceed (NTP). The estimated magnitude of construction is between $2,000,000 and $5,000,000, in accordance with VAAR 836.204(f)(2). This procurement will be conducted as a total set-aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB). Only vendors verified and registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and listed as SDVOSB in the Small Business Administration’s SBA Search (https://search.certifications.sba.gov/) will be eligible to submit proposals and receive award consideration. The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code is 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building Construction), with a small business size standard of $45 million. The Product Service Code (PSC) is Z1DA, which pertains to the maintenance of other hospital buildings. Interested contractors should note that all information in this presolicitation is preliminary and subject to change. The official request for proposal (RFP) is expected to be released on or about May 13, 2026, with proposals due by May 12, 2026. All prospective offerors must ensure their SAM registration is current and that their Online Representations and Certifications Application is up to date. Additionally, SDVOSB and VOSB firms must have their ownership and control status verified by the VA and be listed in the SBA Search database. The contracting entity for this opportunity is the 261-Network Contract Office 21 (36C261), a federal office under the Department of Veterans Affairs. The primary point of contact for this procurement is Daniel Jhun, who can be reached at [email protected] or by phone at 916-923-4557. This project represents a critical investment in the Fresno VA Medical Center’s infrastructure, aiming to bolster its readiness and flexibility in delivering respiratory care to veterans. Contractors with experience in healthcare facility renovations, particularly those involving infection control measures and specialized HVAC systems, are encouraged to review the forthcoming solicitation for further details and requirements.
