PS- RFP ADVA for Healthcare Needs Feasibility Study for Veterans

The Alabama Department of Veterans Affairs (ADVA) is seeking a single‑vendor consultant (or team) to conduct a two‑part feasibility study of healthcare needs for the state’s veterans. Part I focuses on data collection, demographic analysis, and identification of geographic priority areas; Part II delivers resource, construction, and operational cost estimates compatible with Alabama’s Certificate of Need (CON) process and VA State Home Construction Grant requirements. The study will cover a 25‑year demand horizon, rank six statewide regions for potential new facilities, and produce planning‑level cost and programming recommendations. No stakeholder interviews or detailed site‑specific engineering designs are required. The contract term is 24 months, with the core deliverables due within 4–6 months of award. • Conduct statewide veteran‑population demand forecasting (25‑year horizon) and rank six regions for potential new State Veterans Homes. • Produce preliminary programming, planning‑level construction cost estimates, and 5‑year operational budgets compliant with Build America‑Buy America and Davis‑Bacon Act rules. • Deliver two formal reports (Part I & Part II) and present findings to ADVA; travel costs reimbursed per Alabama allowances.
