- THIS SOURCES SOUGHT/REQUEST FOR INFORMATION IS ISSUED FOR INFORMATION AND PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT CONSIDERED A SOLICITATION. The purpose of this sources sought/RFI is to gain knowledge of businesses that are capable of satisfying the following work requirements: PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT LAUNDRY SERVICES VISN 1 DESCRIPTION: Contractor shall furnish all labor, equipment, supervision, management, supplies, and facilities necessary to perform bulk laundry/linen services for the Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Integrated Service Network (VISN1), which includes VA Medical Centers in New England at a contractor owned facility. All services are to be performed in accordance with standard industry practices and quality control measures. Services are required Monday through Friday, Saturday if possible to help with turnaround times excluding federal holidays except as awarded. VISN 1 Medical Centers are required to provide 24-hour support operations essential to patient care and contractor services turn-around shall be performed accordingly to support VAMC (s) operations. All services shall be provided FOB at Contractor s (s) location identified. The VA will drop off and pick up all laundry at the Contractor s facility; therefore, the Contractor s processing facility CANNOT be more than 55 miles from 940 Belmont St, Brockton, MA 02301. NOTE: Definitions of acronyms can be found in Section 2 VA PICK-UP AND DELIVERY HOURS: Pick-up and delivery schedule shall be coordinated with the COR and the Contractor. Schedule modification/alteration opportunities, which would improve operations and turn-around time, without major interruption to either contractor or the Government, shall be negotiated between the Contractor and Lead COR and shall not be implemented until all parties have concurred. Changes to the PWS will be documented in a bilateral modification to the contract before they are initiated. We have been picking up clean and dropping clean and soiled linen every morning before 11 and at night picking up clean and dropping soiled around 6 at night. ESTIMATED QUANTITIES: Historical data is provided in Section 6. However, it is impossible to determine the exact quantities that will be required during the contract term. The contractor shall be required to provide all services that may be ordered during the contract term. The fact that all quantities are not ordered shall not constitute a price adjustment to the contract. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE: A base period of 12 months from the date of award, with four 6-month renewal option periods. The anticipated start date is August 13, 2021. The options may or may not be exercised. 1 - GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1. Scope of Work 1.1.1.1. The work required by this PWS, consists of furnishing the physical laundry plant (at an off-site location), all labor, supervision, management, management support, supplies, ancillary equipment, and materials necessary for accomplishment of complete textile processing services, as described in Section 5. 1.1.1.2. All workmanship shall be in accordance with practices established by the Association of Linen Management (ALM), International Fabricare Institute (IFI), Textile Rental Services Association (TRSA) and accepted industry standards. It is intended that services shall include all processes necessary for the laundering of the articles even though every step involved is not specifically mentioned. All work shall be performed under sanitary conditions as specified by the Joint Commission of Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). Physical separation, through the presence of a barrier wall and the use of pass-through equipment is required to maintain positive air pressure in the clean section relative to a negative air pressure in the soiled section. In no case shall clean and soiled linen share the same physical space. * Plants in which the work is done shall be open to inspection of sanitary conditions by Government representatives. After processing, laundered articles shall be in serviceable and sanitary condition, meeting established quality and performance requirement standards as shown in Section 7. *The Laundry Plant layout/design shall incorporate a design for asepsis whereby clean linen does not come into contact with soiled linens nor share the same physical space, thus avoiding cross-contamination or reintroduction of bacteria once processed. 1.1.2. Any change of function by the Government, which may affect this contract as contemplated by this paragraph, and which requires permanent adjustments in frequency or type of performance, will be coordinated with the Contractor by the Lead COR and CO prior to initiation of such a change to assure adequate contractual coverage. Changes to the PWS will be documented in a bilateral modification to the contract before they are initiated. 1.1.3. Notwithstanding the provisions of the contract covering inspection, acceptance, and deduction from payment, any items found to have been unsatisfactorily cleaned according to quality and performance standards established in Section 7, shall be re-cleaned at no additional cost to the Government. Such items shall be identified, for contractor recognition, by the Facility COR when they are returned on the next scheduled pickup after an unsatisfactory condition is discovered. These items are to be kept separate from the normal laundry items for separate processing. Re-cleaned items shall be identified separately and not charged to the Government. 1.1.4. Scheduled services are to be accomplished subject to emergency situations, which may require alteration of schedules. Emergency situations will be defined by the COR. In the event of Medical Facility emergencies, disaster, or drills, the Contractor shall perform all laundry/linen services required by the Medical Facility. 1.1.5. This specification is intended to produce minimal acceptable level of performance. The Government does recognize the possibility of the Contractor achieving the same or improved results due to innovative approaches, advances in the state-of-the-art materials, equipment and supplies.
