This notice is issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Office of Facilities Acquisition (OFA), Office of Construction and Facilities Management (CFM) for the construction of laundry facilities in/around San Juan Puerto Rico. This notice does not constitute a Request for Proposal, Invitation for Bid, or Request for Quotation, and it is not to be construed as a commitment by the government to enter into a contract.

BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION The San Juan Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) is conducting master planning activities to correct seismic deficiencies for its campus assets. A structural analysis of the laundry facility was conducted in 2021 and found that the facility did not comply with BSE-1N and BSE-2N standards for earthquake events. As a result, the VA is tasked with identifying viable solutions for laundry services in/around San Juan, Puerto Rico and is hosting an industry day to evaluate potential partners available within the community for constructing laundry facilities. The estimated Total Amount of Soiled Linens in fiscal year 2024 equaled approximately 2.13 million pounds with an assumed future state (10-year) need of approximately 2.01 million pounds, annually. The Industry Day is scheduled to be held on December 11 & 12, 2024 virtually and in-person in San Juan, Puerto Rico with the purpose of determining whether there are interested and qualified firms to construct laundry facilities for VA Medical Centers in/around San Juan. The Industry Day will be held at the San Juan VA Medical Center, Hospital de Veteranos (VA Caribbean Healthcare System), located at 10 C. Casia, San Juan, 00921, Puerto Rico, Room 2M240. A tentative agenda is included as an attachment to this amendment.
