About this file

This is a Request for Proposals (RFP) for an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract issued by Federal Prison Industries (UNICOR) for toilet preparation manufacturing items, solicitation number SV0236-26. The contract is for commercial products under North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 325620 and is not set aside for small business concerns. The acquisition is unrestricted, and items are considered commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) products subject to the Buy American Act.

The solicitation covers approximately 50 line items including personal hygiene products such as shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrushes, razors, deodorant, soaps, and feminine hygiene products, with quantities ranging from 576 to 12 million units per item. Vendors must maintain vendor-managed inventory at minimum quantities specified for 14 critical items within the United States and provide samples for items not supplied to UNICOR in the past 12 months. The contract is structured as a three-year agreement consisting of one base year and two optional years, with an additional six-month extension available at the government's discretion. Pricing must be firm-fixed on a unit basis with economic price adjustments permitted annually based on the PPI Index for toilet preparation manufacturing (PCU325620325620). The guaranteed minimum order is 100 units per item; UNICOR's requested maximum delivery term is 30 calendar days. Delivery is FOB Destination to FPC Bryan, Texas (1100 Ursuline Ave, Bryan, TX 77803). Proposals are due by Monday, October 19, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. EST and must be submitted via email to elizabeth.mcnealy@usdoj.gov. Evaluation will be based on three factors: Technical Capability (including domestic content superiority, best delivery time, and vendor-managed inventory plan), Past Performance, and Price, with non-price factors weighted approximately equal to price. Award is expected on September 17, 2026, and vendors must be registered and active in SAM.gov at the time of proposal submission and maintain that status through final payment.

DOJ-08, Continuing Contract Performance During a Pandemic Influenza or

Other National Emergency (OCT 2007)

During a Pandemic or other emergency, we understand that our contractor workforce will experience the same high levels of absenteeism as our federal employees. Although the Excusable Delays and Termination for

Default clauses used in government contracts list epidemics and quarantine restrictions among the reasons to excuse delays in contract performance, we expect our contractors to make a reasonable effort to keep performance at an acceptable level during emergency periods. The Office of Personnel

Management (OPM) has provided guidance to federal managers and employees on the kinds of actions to be taken to ensure the continuity of operations during emergency periods. This guidance is also applicable to our contract workforce. Contractors are expected to have reasonable policies in place for continuing work performance, particularly those performing mission critical services during a pandemic influenza or other emergency situation.

The types of actions a federal contractor should reasonably take to help ensure performance are:

• Encourage employees to get inoculations or follow other preventive measures as advised by the public health service.

• Contractors should cross-train workers as backup for all positions performing critical services. This is particularly important for work such as guard services where telework is not an option.

• Implement telework to the greatest extent possible in the workgroup so

SV0236-26 Page 23 of 36 systems are in place to support successful remote work in an emergency.

• Communicate expectations to all employees regarding their roles and responsibilities in relation to remote work in the event of a pandemic health crisis or other emergency.

• Establish communication processes to notify employees of activation of this plan.

• Integrate pandemic health crisis response expectations into telework agreements.

• With the employee, assess requirements for working at home (supplies and equipment needed for an extended telework period). Security concerns should be considered in making equipment choices; agencies or contractors may wish to avoid use of employees' personal computers and provide them with PCs or laptops as appropriate.

• Determine how all employees who may telework will communicate with one another and with management to accomplish work.

• Practice telework regularly to ensure effectiveness.

• Make it clear that in emergency situations, employees must perform all duties assigned by management, even if they are outside usual or customary duties.

• Identify how time and attendance will be maintained.

It is the contractor's responsibility to advise the government contracting officer if they anticipate not being able to perform and to work with the

Department to fill gaps as necessary. This means direct communication with the contracting officer or in his/her absence, another responsible person in the contracting office via telephone or email messages acknowledging the contractor’s notification. The incumbent contractor is responsible for assisting the Department in estimating the adverse impacts of nonperformance and to work diligently with the Department to develop a strategy for maintaining the continuity of operations.

The Department does reserve the right in such emergency situations to use federal employees, employees of other agencies, contract support from other existing contractors, or to enter into new contracts for critical support services. Any new contracting efforts would be acquired following the guidance in the Office of federal Procurement Policy issuance

"Emergency Acquisitions", May 2007 and Subpart 18.2. Emergency Acquisition

Flexibilities, of the federal Acquisition Regulations.

FPI 1000HI, Economic Price Adjustment

(a) Twelve (12) months after contract award date, and every twelve (12) months thereafter, contract prices for the succeeding twelve (12) month period may be adjusted in accordance with the change in PPI Index

PCU325620325620 (Toilet preparation manufacturing), NOT SEASONALLY

ADJUSTED, using the simple percentage method described in the U.S.

Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics “Escalation Guide for

Contracting Parties, available at http://www.bls.gov/ppi/ppiescalation.htm. This will be calculated as follows: index at time of calculation, divided by index at time base price was set. Multiply result by base price, equals adjusted price. IT IS THE

CONTRACTOR'S RESPONSIBILITY TO REQUEST THIS ADJUSTMENT.

(b) Adjustments may be requested after the preliminary price index for the month immediately before the anniversary of contract award has been published but not to exceed 90 days after the eligible adjustment date

(i.e., anniversary of the contract award date). Requests that are made after the 90-day limit will not be honored and the contract pricing will not be adjusted. The contractor shall submit any requests for adjustments in writing to the contracting officer. Requests shall include a copy of the relevant index and must be within the allowed time period for adjustment. Any adjustments authorized as a result of the adjustment request will not be retroactive. The date the completed request is received by the contracting officer will be the effective date of any changes in price. Economic price increases will not be granted if the contractor has any past due orders at time of request.

(c) The contractor also is required to request downward price adjustments.

All downward adjustments will be retroactive to the authorized adjustment date as specified in this clause. If downward price adjustments are not requested and this is later revealed through audits or otherwise, the contractor shall reimburse the Government for the amount overcharged plus interest. Interest will be computed at the rate set annually by the

Secretary of the Treasury for late contract payments. Interest will accrue from the date the adjustment should have been made.

(d) In computing any price adjustment, the preliminary/first-published

SV0236-26 Page 26 of 36 index for the month and year of contract award will be compared to the preliminary/first-published index for the month immediately before the contract anniversary month of the adjustment year. This index is not seasonally adjusted. If this index is temporarily unavailable or permanently discontinued, the contracting parties shall either use the index one level up (i.e., the broader index under which the selected index was listed) or agree in writing upon a substitute index.

(e) No adjustment shall be made if the referenced change is less than 2%.

Total upward adjustment for the contract period, including any option periods, shall not exceed 10% of the original contract base price;

downward adjustments are not limited.

(f) PPI data can be obtained from the Bureau of Labor Statistics website, by emailing the PPI at ppi-info@bls.gov, or by calling (202) 691-7705.
