Cochran Veterans Hospital in St. Louis, MO. Each level of the structure will be approximately 35,650 square feet and support 1 additional level of parking which may be added in the future. The structure may be cast in place, or precast.

Offerors must submit a complete Phase 1 proposal to be considered for Phase 2. PHASE 1 DOES NOT INVOLVE A PRICING SUBMISSION. In Phase 2, a solicitation amendment will be issued to only the down-selected offerors from Phase 1, inviting them to submit a concept design solution, small business participation plan, and price proposals that conform to the Phase 2 submission, evaluation, and performance requirements. The Phase 1 D-B Request for Proposal will be available on the SAM.gov website, on or about 13 April 2026. Proposals will be due approximately 35 days later.
