Solicitation No.: 693JF722R000005 Food Service Integrated Pest management Program

Responses to Questions/Comments

1) Does the USMMA ever purchase, deploy, and maintain their own rodent control equipment, or does the USMMA always hire a pest control service provider for this type of work?

Response: Since the USMMA does not purchase equipment for pest management services, the contractor would be responsible for using their own pest extermination equipment to provide the services according to the statement of work (SOW). The USMMA always procure a pest control provider for this type of work.

2) Does the service provider/s the USMMA currently use deploy the Goodnature A24? Is the Maritime Administration at liberty to name the pest control company or companies who won this bid?

Response: The USMMA point of contact (POC) is unaware if the control device Goodnature A24 is deployed. The following contractors provide integrated pest management services on the campus:
