1. SCOPE

This is a performance-based contract capable of assisting the Department of the Air Force (DAF) in removing and disposing of medical waste, specifically various amounts of expired unused Antidote Treatment Nerve Agent Autoinjectors (ATNAA), Diazepam autoinjectors and Midazolam. The number of sites and quantities that need disposal service will vary from year-to-year. The contract shall include service for both the continental United States (CONUS) and outside the continental United States (OCONUS). The Government’s need for on-site and/or off-site processing is imperative to assure optimum inventory control and to eliminate the violation of laws and regulations, especially in waste disposal. Contractors shall be compliant with all applicable regulations related to handling pharmaceutical waste, hazardous waste, and controlled substances.

It is the intent of AFMEDCOM A4/10Mto establish an efficient process to remove and dispose of expired autoinjectors. The autoinjectors to be processed for ATNAA, Diazepam, and Midazolam will cover expired autoinjectors and autoinjectors set to expire during the contract period.

The proposed removal and disposal fee shall be the total cost for a central purchase and should cover all the contractor’s costs including, but not limited to, packaging, shipping, processing access to facilities and any other applicable fees in performance of the disposal service.

Appendix 1 identifies the locations, quantities of autoinjectors currently expired and projected to expire 2025-2026. Autoinjectors set to expire in calendar years 2027-2028 are unknown.

Because the number of autoinjectors that require disposal can vary, the quantities provided in the Appendix are projections only. Prior to the Contractors visit, each site requiring service will identify the quantity of expired ATNAA, Diazepam and Midazolam in the War Reserve Materiel program that will be disposed.
