Description

The California Department of Veterans Affairs (CalVet) is soliciting competitive sealed‑bid proposals for a three‑year contract to provide comprehensive Legionella water‑testing services at the Veterans Home in Chula Vista. The contractor must design and maintain a Legionella Control Program, perform semi‑annual sampling (11 sites each in December and June), deliver laboratory analysis and results, respond to emergency testing requests within four hours, retain samples for at least three months, and comply with extensive licensing, certification, insurance, and regulatory requirements. No DVBE subcontracting goal is mandated, but participation is encouraged and incentives may apply.

Budget estimate

$80,000 – $200,000

No contract value is disclosed, but typical Legionella testing rates range from $200‑$500 per sample, plus fees for program management, emergency response, and reporting. Assuming 22 samples per year (≈ $4,000‑$11,000 annually) plus program and emergency service fees (~$30,000‑$60,000 per year), the three‑year contract could reasonably fall between $80,000 and $200,000. Factors influencing the range include the final rate sheet pricing, volume of emergency calls, and any DVBE or small‑business price preferences applied.
