This is a sole source justification document for the New Mexico General Services Department supporting a contract opportunity with Santa Fe Public Schools to address waste diversion and recycling goals. The document outlines a proposed sole source award to Reunity, a vendor specializing in waste management and recycling solutions. Santa Fe Public Schools seeks to divert waste from landfills and increase recycling diversion rates, with approximately 40% of school site waste originating from cafeteria operations consisting primarily of food waste and related materials. The project addresses the district's sustainability objectives through enhanced waste segregation, composting, and recycling program implementation across school facilities.

The sole source justification indicates that Reunity was selected as the single source provider based on its specialized capabilities in managing school food waste and organic material diversion programs. The document supports the procurement method as appropriate given the vendor's unique qualifications and existing expertise in similar school district sustainability initiatives. The contract structure appears to involve waste management services tailored to Santa Fe Public Schools' specific operational needs and environmental goals, with pricing and service terms to be established through the sole source procurement process.
