The amendment corrects the Tilton clinic ZIP code, adds applicable wage determinations, answers vendor questions, and updates proposal references. Review the amended solicitation and its documents before preparing a response.

Proposals are due November 3, 2026, at 10:00 AM ET. The solicitation states that proposals are accepted for a two-week period beginning on its issuance date.
The notice does not state what happens at the deadline. Follow the solicitation’s submission instructions, and allow time to complete the required submission before the due time.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity may suit janitorial and custodial service firms that can serve community-based outpatient clinics. The notice says the solicitation is open to qualified small businesses and identifies a $22 million small-business size standard for NAICS 561720.

Check that pricing is complete, required forms and signatures are included, and your SAM, SBA VetCert, and VA vendorization steps are addressed as applicable.
