Kitchen Exhaust Hood Certification & Cleaning Services

18 March 2026

1. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

The contractor must provide all personnel, equipment, tools, supplies, expertise, materials, and other items necessary to perform cleaning kitchen exhaust hoods and ducts at Sheppard AFB, Texas, and Sheppard AFB Annex located at Lake Texoma (approximately 120 miles from Sheppard AFB). Certified, qualified, trained, and efficient personnel skilled in the trade must perform in compliance with the contract and industry standards.

Contractors shall be certified. Certification must come from an industry standardized organization such as International Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning Association (IKECA). The contractor will be responsible for providing proof of certification for Certified Exhaust Cleaning Specialists on an annual basis or as directed by their certifying industry standardized organization. The contractor must provide an electronic copy of the certification to the Contracting Officer (CO) and Contracting Officer Representative (COR) within 10 days of certification renewal. During the performance of work, at least one certified technician must remain on-site at all times. During the span of this contract, modifications may be required. Modifications are based on a per exhaust hood and duct system by building. Modifications will be generated due to facility utilization, additions and deletions, renovations, demolition, and new construction.

1.1. BASIC SERVICES

The contractor shall clean (to the bare metal) and certify hood and duct systems. Cleaning procedures must adhere to the requirements of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 96, which is entitled “Standard for Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations.” The contractor must also follow standards set forth in the National Fire Code, Air Force Instruction (AFI) 32-2001, and Occupational Safety and Health Standards (OSHA) requirements. Contractor shall be familiar with the above regulations.

Contractor shall perform all work in strict accordance with the highest safety standards and applicable codes in order to eliminate the possibility of damage to installed machinery, equipment, and building structures. The contractor is responsible for cleaning from the exhaust exit point, down to the hood which includes exhaust fan, ductwork, filters, hood, and drip containers. Some exhaust hood systems will require the use of access panels.

The Government will be responsible for installing access panels as required. The contractor shall be familiar with multiple types of exhaust hood systems. The contractor shall be responsible for cleaning the exhaust fan drip containers on the roof before tipping the exhaust fan (to avoid roof decay from excess grease). Contractor shall not dispose of used filters on base. Contractor shall be responsible for replacing the filter in the exterior (rooftop) drip container. If a filter is not in the drip container, the contractor is required to place a new one in the container and shall annotate the filter that was missing on the After Service Report (ASR). Kitchen filters (initial interior filtering system) shall be removed before any work is done on the hood and duct system, and once the contractor has cleaned the filters thoroughly, they shall be returned to their original position at the completion of services.

1.1.1. Definition. For the purpose of this contract, an exhaust hood and duct system are considered a continuous passageway for the transmission of air and vapors that, in addition to the containment components themselves, must include duct fittings, dampers, plenums, filters, and/or other items of air handling equipment.

Exhaust duct and hood systems will comprise of the exhaust duct systems, the fan and blower housing, fan wheel/blades, fan, drip containers, and other features inherent to the operation of the entire systems with the exception of the electric motor interiors.

1.1.2. Preparation Work. Contractor shall ensure all interior areas and equipment from the hood to the floor and all exterior areas and equipment around the hood exit point (roof or wall) are protected from being soiled during the cleaning process. If the equipment that requires protection from being soiled conducts heat or flame, the contractor shall use a nonflammable type of protection to cover and protect said equipment. The contractor will ensure equipment that produces flame or heat is turned off or in standby mode before services begin and turned on when services are complete. When accessibility requires the movement of equipment the contractor will move it. The contractor is responsible for connecting or disconnecting equipment utilities (gas, electric, water, etc.) and will follow all regulations applicable to the task. The contractor shall be responsible for cleaning all areas or equipment that are soiled, dirtied, or damaged during the performance of services at no additional cost to the Government. Cleaning of soiled areas and items shall be done in accordance with the manufacturer’s suggested cleaning methods. The contractor is responsible for all damaged or unusable products, equipment, and items. Clean up procedures shall be completed prior to the contractor departing and the facility opening for normal business.

1.1.3. Waste Water Containment. As part of preparation work and prior to any cleaning procedures, the contractor must have an industry standard and environmentally sound method to collect all wastewater generated from cleaning procedures. Wastewater must be contained and directed to an approved location or container during all cleaning processes to include the exterior procedures performed on the roof and the interior procedures performed on the hood. Wastewater may be disposed of down a grease trap designed to handle wastewater (See table 2 for a list of locations possessing grease traps). The contractor shall not allow wastewater to run off the rooftops onto the ground or to enter into storm drains. Roof gutters and downspouts may be used if an industry standard and environmentally sound method of wastewater containment are set up at the bottom to prevent pollution. However, if used, the gutter and downspouts shall be cleansed of all residue upon completion. Reference Section 5, Environmental Requirements. Within 30 days of award of the contract, the contractor must submit in writing and ensure their collection methods for all wastewater generated are approved and accepted by the CO prior to usage. The method used shall be submitted in writing for acceptance.

It is the contractor’s responsibility to notify the CO if the method changes and re-establish acceptance.

1.1.4. Fire Suppression System. The hood and duct systems are equipped with fire suppression systems. Components of the fire suppression system shall not be rendered inoperable during the cleaning process. Flammable solvents or other flammable cleaning aids shall not be used. Cleaning chemicals shall not be applied on fusible links or other detection devices of the automatic extinguishing system. The contractor shall notify the contracting officer representative (COR) immediately if they notice any irregularities or non-operational units. The contractor shall ensure the latches and trigger points of these systems are free of grease and build up. The contractor’s cleaning technician must be aware of the operations of fire suppression systems.

If in the process of cleaning the hood and duct system, the fire suppression system should let down/release, the contractor is held responsible for cleanup of all affected areas as well as recharging the fire suppression system by a certified technician in the fire suppression field. The contractor will be responsible for clean-up procedures and associated costs as stated in paragraph 1.1.2, Preparation Work.

1.1.5. Hood Identification. Each hood is labeled with an identification number. This number is the hood’s identification number shown in the price exhibit/bid schedule and the monthly breakdown of each hood.

These numbers are to remain on the hood. If during the contractor’s performance of services, the number is not present, falls off, or is not legible, the contractor shall notify the COR. Immediately after cleaning each hood, the contractor must affix a tag or label on each individual hood and duct system. The tag/label shall be displayed on the outside of the hood, not on the inside where it would be overly susceptible to grease-laden vapors. The tag/label must adhere and be legible until the next scheduled service, and it must be able to withstand normal cleaning procedures used by the occupant to clean the hood surface. The tag/label must not damage the system or interfere in the operation of the hood and duct system. The tag/label at a minimum shall include the following information: the contractor’s company information, the date (month, date, and year) in which that system was cleaned, when the next scheduled service is required per contract (month and year), and the signature of the contractor’s cleaning technician. The signature of the cleaning technician certifies that the exhaust hood and duct system has been cleaned to meet all NFPA 96 standards and requirements and all requirements outlined in this PWS. The month shall be spelled out (January, February, March) or abbreviated (Jan, Feb, Mar). To avoid confusion do not use a number to represent the month. While cleaning an exhaust system, if the contractor discovers an area that cannot be cleaned because it cannot be accessed, the contractor shall annotate on the certification label as such “inaccessible area exists in this system” and shall also annotate it on the contractor’s after-service report (ASR) specifically detailing what areas are not accessible.

1.1.6. After Service Report (ASR). At the completion of all services, the contractor is required to fill out a written report to be submitted to the COR within 3 workdays after services are completed if a problem is annotated, otherwise, the ASRs can be submitted at the end of the month with the invoice. Failure to have all required data below will result in a written discrepancy for SS-3, Report Requirements. The contractor shall submit the ASR to the COR. The ASR at a minimum must include the following information:

a. Contractor’s company name, address, and telephone number

b. Contract number

c. The date and time of service (and notification time for emergency requests)

d. Indicate if it is a reperformance by annotating the date the unacceptable service was performed initially

e. The date (month and year) of next scheduled service

f. The facility number

g. The work performed (scheduled or emergency), and the number of hood and ducts serviced

h. The cleaning technician’s signature (the employee who shall sign the certification tag/label, if multiple technicians are used, ensure technician also prints name along with signature.)

i. Annotate if any inaccessible areas were found and contractor’s recommended solution

j. Annotation of whether drip container filters were present or not

k. A signature from the building occupant and phone number*

l. A place for comments – contractor can alert the Government of any particular problems, hazards, requests or recommendations regarding that particular hood and duct system

m. A place for signature for the COR and the fire department inspector**

*Building occupant’s signature is required. If no occupant, the COR will complete follow up inspection the next day. It simply is verification the contractor was present not that work was done to an acceptable or unacceptable level.

**COR and fire department inspectors will not always be on site. If one is not available to sign, contractor shall mark “not present” on the form.

1.1.7. Fire Department. The fire department, at their discretion, may come and inspect or observe the performance of the contractor’s cleaning services. If the fire department notices a discrepancy with the cleaning services, the contractor shall be required to correct discrepancies on the spot. The cleaning of exhaust hood and duct systems is preventive maintenance for potential kitchen fires; it is imperative the contractor’s cleaning technician adheres to NFPA 96 procedures.

1.2. EMERGENCY OR SPECIAL CLEANING SERVICES:

Upon notification, the contractor must perform emergency or special hood and duct cleaning required in any facility located on Sheppard AFB. The contractor must not reduce efforts elsewhere due to emergencies or special event cleaning services. An example of emergency or special cleaning would include a new facility on base that requires a hood cleaning prior to the Government being able to modify the contract to include it, or the volume of cooking drastically changes in a facility and the fire department deems it necessary to increase the frequency of cleaning and in the interest of fire prevention, extra cleanings are necessary prior to the Government being able to modify the contract.

1.2.1. Emergency Services. Emergency or special hood and duct cleaning services fall under the same requirements already defined in the statement of work for hoods. Contractor must begin emergency work within 5 hours of notification for Sheppard AFB and within 5 hours of notification for Lake Texoma during normal duty days (0730 - 1630) and within 5 hours for Sheppard AFB and 5 hours for Lake Texoma during non-duty hours and holidays.

2.1. QUALITY CONTROL

2.1.1. Quality Control. Contracts for commercial items rely on the contractor’s existing quality assurance systems as a substitute for Government inspection. The Government will rely on the contractor’s assurances that the commercial item tendered for acceptance conforms to the contract requirements. Quality control is the responsibility of the contractor and not the Government.

2.1.2. Quality Assurance. The Government will monthly evaluate and monitor the contractor’s performance by designating COR to monitor performance to ensure services are received in accordance with the contract. The Government may increase or decrease the number of inspections as deemed appropriate.

2.1.3. Surveillance Methods. The COR may conduct surveillance inspections based on the contractor’s submitted schedules. The surveillance method may be determined by, but not limited to, continual valid customer complaints or failure to meet quality standards set forth in the contract. Failure to meet any service summary (SS) threshold(s) for any of the performance objectives will result in an immediate warning or letter of concern from the CO. Failure to meet any SS threshold(s) for two consecutive months during a contract period will result in an immediate Progress Meeting with the MFT.

2.2. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION:

The performance of service will be evaluated to determine whether it meets the performance requirements of the contract. Evaluations will be completed through receipt of customer complaints from the facility, “spot check” inspection by the COR, or inspection by the fire department. When service is unacceptable, the contractor shall be notified by the COR in writing. The contractor shall be given the opportunity to reperform services for that facility during that month. Once service is re-performed, the contractor must contact the COR and send an ASR annotating it is a reperformance.

2.2.1. Deficiencies. The contractor shall be notified in writing of unacceptable service by COR within 3 calendar days of performance. Unacceptable service is logged as a deficiency, and the contractor shall not invoice for services deemed unacceptable. Contractor may invoice upon acceptable reperformance of service.

2.2.2. Reperformance Timeframe. Reperformance shall be done within the same month as that hood was originally scheduled, but in facilities that are scheduled monthly then there must be at a minimum of 14 days in between a reperformance and the next regularly scheduled month’s cleaning. For the facilities and hoods that receive multiple cleanings within the same month (cleaning frequency of every 2 weeks), reperformance must be completed prior to the next cleaning due that month, however, there must be 5 days in between reperformance and the new scheduled cleaning. Re-performances are conducted at no additional cost to the Government.

2.3. MULITFUNCTION TEAM MEETINGS

The CO, COR, Functional Service Manager, other Government personnel as appropriate, and the Contractor may meet to discuss the Contractor’s performance as needed. Discussions may include; opportunities to improve the contract, any modifications required of the contract, unsatisfactory inspections and valid customer complaints against each performance objective observed, and steps taken by the Contractor to prevent occurrences in the future. The Contractor shall provide a summation of performance to include internal quality inspections and provide insight into any identified trends. The contracting administrator (CA) or CO may request all parties submit agenda items in written form prior to the meeting. All parties may submit agenda items to the CA/CO prior to the meeting.

The minutes of these meetings will be signed by the CO and any other signatures as deemed appropriate, distributed to the functional area COR and the Contractor. Should the Contractor not concur with the minutes, the Contractor will provide written notification to the Contracting Officer identifying areas of non-concurrence for resolution.
