About this file
This is a Solicitation Addendum No. 1 issued by Austin Financial Services - Central Procurement for the City of Austin regarding IFB 1500 MHR1020 for cleaning and sanitation services of biological and environmental waste. The solicitation addresses removal, transportation, and disposal of biological and contaminated materials from public areas, rights-of-way, alleys, parks, and encampments across multiple city departments. The addendum, dated August 20, 2026, clarifies that this is a new solicitation without an incumbent contractor and that the total square footage and specific service volumes are undetermined as sites will vary per request. Bidders are directed to the Scope of Work for detailed information regarding cleaning types and locations throughout the City of Austin service area. The contract term is 24 months with three optional 12-month extension periods, and contractors must meet specified response time requirements of 2 to 4 hours as outlined in the Scope of Work.
The addendum indicates that no historical spend data, previous invoices, contract copies, or budget information is available since this is a new solicitation. There is no incumbent contractor transitioning work to a successor. Contractors are required to comply with all response time requirements and geographic service conditions without flexibility allowances. The solicitation requests responses in response to detailed line items and specifications, with pricing to cover labor, equipment, transportation, and disposal fees. Award will be based on bid cost, contractor qualifications, safety protocols, and past performance in biological waste remediation. All bidders must acknowledge receipt of this addendum by returning one signed copy with their response prior to the solicitation closing date, with failure to do so constituting grounds for offer rejection.
