NAICS 311613 for Rendering and Meat Byproduct Processing encompasses industrial services and processes related to converting animal waste, byproducts, and organic materials into usable commercial products. These services include collecting, processing, and disposing of animal carcasses, fats, bones, cooking oils, and other meat-related waste streams. The work involves specialized waste management techniques that transform potentially hazardous organic materials into valuable commodities through rendering, recycling, and responsible disposal methods.

Recent federal contract awards in this category demonstrate a consistent pattern of service contracts primarily with defense and correctional agencies. Typical contract values range from $5,400 to $790,732, with durations spanning several months to five years. Frequent awardees include small businesses like Tucson Tallow Co, Inc., Nevada Byproducts Inc., and Werling Meats, Inc. The Defense Commissary Agency and the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons emerge as primary contracting agencies, with most awards being firm fixed-price purchase orders or blanket purchase agreements. Many contracts are set aside for small businesses, particularly those owned by minority groups, and are typically performed in southwestern and western U.S. states.

The most recent federal contract opportunity from the Defense Commissary Agency seeks contractors to provide fats, bones, oil, and grease removal services for eight commissaries in the Contiguous United States. The pre-solicitation notice indicates a requirement for lawful pickup, removal, and disposal of various animal byproducts, including chicken, pork, beef, fish, and used cooking oils. The opportunity is set aside for small businesses with fewer than 750 employees, and contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management. The anticipated contract structure includes one base year with four 12-month option periods, focusing on environmentally responsible waste management across multiple commissary locations.
