About this file
This is a memorandum from the Defense Health Agency (DHA) designating Healthcare Environmental Cleaning (HEC) services as essential contractor services at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center (LRMC) and Rhine Ordinance Barracks Medical Center, both military medical treatment facilities (MTFs) located in APO AE 09180-3100. Issued May 26, 2026, the memorandum is addressed to the Healthcare Contracting Division-Southeast within the DHA Contracting Activity and references DFARS Subpart 237.76 regarding continuation of essential contractor services during emergencies or crises.
The memorandum identifies nine specific clinical areas within the MTFs where HEC services must continue uninterrupted during emergency or crisis situations: Emergency Department (ED), Sterile Processing Department (SDP), Radiology and Operating Room (OR), Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), Pre-Procedure Unit (PPU), Ambulatory Procedure Unit (APU), Labor & Delivery (L&D), and Patient Wards 7D, 8D, 10C, and 13D. The determination that these HEC services are essential to maintaining mission-essential functions is based on the assessment that failure to provide or sustain such services would significantly impact the MTF's ability to provide vital services and exercise operational authority. The point of contact for this memorandum is LTC Calvin R. King at 314-590-4398 or calvin.r.king4.mil@health.mil. The memorandum is signed by COL Warren A. Stewart, Commanding.

MEMORANDUM FOR Healthcare Contracting Division-Southeast, Defense Health Agency Contracting Activity (DHACA).
SUBJECT Landstuhl Regional Medical Center (LRMC) and Rhine Ordinance Barracks Medical Center Military Medical Treatment Facility (MTF) Healthcare Environmental Cleaning (HEC) Services Designated as Essential Contractor Services.
1. Reference DoDI 1100.22, Policy and Procedures for Determining Workforce Mix (Apr. 12, 2010); Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) Subpart 237.76, Continuation of Essential Contractor Services.
2. Pursuant to DFARS 237.7601, “essential contractor services” means “a service provided by a firm or individual under contract to DoD to support mission-essential functions,” including support of vital systems and associated support activities. “Mission-essential functions” means “those organizational activities that must be performed under all circumstances to achieve DoD component missions or responsibilities, as determined by the appropriate functional commander or civilian equivalent.” Failure to perform or sustain mission-essential functions at this DHA MTF would significantly affect the MTF’s ability to provide vital services or exercise authority, direction, and control.
3. I have determined that HEC services are essential to maintaining mission-essential functions at this MTF during an emergency or crisis. Generally, the designation of services as “essential contractor services” will not apply to an entire contract but will apply only to those service functions that have been specifically identified as “essential contractor services” by the functional commander or civilian equivalent. See DFARS 237.7602(a). I have determined that the following required HEC services are so essential that they must continue during a crisis situation.
a. Emergency Department (ED)
b. Sterile Processing Department (SDP)
c. Radiology, Operating Room (OR)
d. Intensive Care Unit (ICU)
e. Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU)
f. Pre-Procedure Unit (PPU)
g. Ambulatory Procedure Unit (APU)
h. Labor & Delivery (L&D)
i. Patient Wards, 7D, 8D, 10C,13D
