General: Veterans Affairs (VA) Office of Integrated Veteran Care (IVC) requires backup power generation systems to support the Data Center, Telecommunications, and Emergency Lighting. IVC processes about 12 million claims per fiscal year and employees approximately 2,000 employees. The Logistics Department is responsible for facilities management and requires contractor support for maintenance of our power generations systems. 2. Objective: The ability to continue operations is essential to the mission of this organization. IVC requires a contractor to provide preventative maintenance support for the emergency backup generators and the heat pumps that provide cooling to its leased spaces and IT hub rooms. 3. Scope: The IVC Data Center requires two (2) emergency power backup generators in order to operate the Data Center if there is a power outage in the Ptarmigan Building. It is essential that these generators perform properly when needed or else there is a risk of losing power in the Data Center and stopping operations of the IVC. The heat pumps provide cool air in rooms not cooled by the building air conditioning system, such as the IT hub rooms, and protects sensitive IT equipment from overheating and failing to operate as designed. 4. Place of Performance: Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Integrated Veteran Care in Denver, CO.
