Notice of Intent to Award a Succeeding Lease for the Burlington County CBOC

Summary: Background The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) intends to award a succeeding lease for the Burlington County Community-Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC) located in Marlton, NJ. This action is authorized under the General Services Acquisition Manual (GSAM) Part 570.402, which allows for sole source lease awards when it is determined that awarding to another location would result in substantial duplication of costs that cannot be recovered through competition. The current lease at 3000 Lincoln Dr E, Marlton, NJ expired on March 3, 2026, and it is critical for the VA mission that the Burlington CBOC remains operational. Work Details The succeeding lease will require approximately 14,411 square feet of medical space available for immediate occupancy. The estimated term of the lease is up to 15 years, with a firm term of up to 5 years and a non-firm term of 10 years. No tenant improvements will be performed under this lease award. The space must be located within the following delineated area: - North - County Road 537; - South - Route 70; - East - Pine Street/Eayrestown Rd; - West - Route 73. The VA will consider alternative spaces if they are economically advantageous and can satisfy the agency's requirements while offsetting costs associated with relocation. Period of Performance Estimated term is up to 15 years; up to 5 years firm term and 10 years non-firm term. Place of Performance Marlton, NJ, ZIP Code 08053, USA Bidder Requirements This advertisement is not a request for lease proposals; however, interested parties who believe they can provide a facility that meets the requirements are invited to submit a written statement of capability along with supporting evidence by email by June 19, 2026. Telephone responses will not be accepted. Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail) The notice indicates a confirmed closely related prior contract for janitorial services at the Burlington County CBOC in Marlton, NJ (36C24423A0003-36C24425N0308) awarded to Hamhed for $38,344 during 01/01/25–09/30/25. While this opportunity is for a succeeding lease rather than janitorial work, the prior award’s location and facility-specific service scope suggest it is tied to the same CBOC site and may represent continuity of operations at the clinic.
