The Air Force awarded a $252,586 firm fixed-price purchase order to Palmetto Goodwill Services, an AbilityOne non-profit organization, to provide aseptic cleaning services for the veterinary treatment facility at Shaw Air Force Base in South Carolina. Under the contract, which runs through August 31, 2026, Palmetto Goodwill Services will furnish all necessary management, labor, supervision, materials, equipment, and transportation to maintain aseptic management systems at the facility. The award was made without a set-aside designation, despite the contractor's non-profit status focused on supporting veterans, individuals with disabilities, and disadvantaged populations.
Palmetto Goodwill Services operates across 18 counties in lower South Carolina and has an established track record delivering facility operation and maintenance services to federal agencies, particularly within the Department of Defense. The organization currently maintains an extensive portfolio of contracts at military installations and federal facilities, including custodial services at Joint Base Charleston, janitorial services for multiple federal agencies, and food service operations. This veterinary clinic cleaning contract represents an expansion of the organization's service offerings at Shaw Air Force Base, where it also provides dining facility food services and mess attendant services.
