Description
The VA seeks a firm‑fixed‑price contractor to modify the existing reverse‑osmosis (RO) and de‑ionization (DI) water‑treatment loops at the Minneapolis VA Health Care System. Work includes separating the Sterile Processing Service (SPS) DI loop, tying it into the RO loop, removing dead‑leg DI piping, installing a new UV sterilizer, a multi‑cartridge filter housing, adding ST‑108‑compliant testing and flushing ports, replacing RO membranes, pre‑filter, and low‑pressure switch, and sanitizing the loops. All work must be coordinated with the Contracting Officer Representative, performed primarily outside normal business hours, and documented with daily performance logs. The contractor must provide certified water‑treatment technicians, state‑licensed plumbing personnel, and obtain ICRA and burn permits where required.
