About this file

This is a Questions and Answers document for a federal contract solicitation (W9124B-26-R-A003) for portable latrine and handwashing station rental services at Fort Irwin.

The solicitation is a follow-on IDIQ (Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity) contract set aside for Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB). The amendment extends the response deadline to Monday, March 23, 2026 at 12:00 PM PST. The predecessor contract (W9124B-24-D-0001) had a total value of $5,259,200.00. Pricing is structured by CLIN (Contract Line Item Number), with quantities representing ceilings. Bidders must provide daily unit prices for rental of portable latrines and handwashing stations (ADA and non-ADA compliant). The total CLIN price is calculated as: Number of Units × Number of Days × Daily Unit Price. The IDIQ has one-year periods of performance with mission-dependent usage that may range from one day to several months per order. A minimum guaranteed amount of $2,500.00 applies to the resulting contract. The government does not guarantee water provision or power connections within 100 feet of service locations, particularly in austere training areas; contractors are solely responsible for all servicing and necessary power solutions. Demand is expected to fluctuate significantly due to Army transformation initiatives, preventing long-term demand forecasting. The SF 1449 form, which contains evaluation criteria and additional requirements, was referenced in the amended solicitation.

Updated 17 MARCH 2026, 3:45PM. Question 11 added.

1. I am trying to obtain the intended and or the pre-qualified bidders list for this project.

Please refer to Block 10 od the SF 1449 (Solicitation): VETERAN-OWNED SMALL

BUSINESS (SDVOSB).

2. Solicitation___W9124B26RA003_Professional_Appearance.pdf and the associated pricing spreadsheet are not currently available. Could you please advise whether these documents will be released shortly?

The Solicitation has been ammended___W9124B26R-A003 and extends the solicitation to Monday 23 March 2026 at 12:00PM (noon) PST.

On the amended RFP, Page 2 starts the “Continuation of Supplies or Services and Prices/Costs”. Next to each CLIN the quantity refers to the ceiling of this CLIN once an IDIQ is awarded (or maximum number of “days” per leased unit the government can award).

Calculation Formula for delivery orders once an IDIQ has been awarded:

Total CLIN Price = (Number of Units: will vary depending on the need) × (Number of Days: will vary depending on the need) × (Daily Unit Price)

On the “Unit Price” section please price to how much you’ll charge the government for 1 Daily Rental Rate of a unit of portable latrines and handwashing station. The “Amount” section refers to the total maximum amount resulting off the IDIQ for the CLIN (multiply the Daily Rental Rate Unit Price times the total Quantity ceiling to arrive at the “Amount” on the far-right column.

3. The main issue is that there's no SF1449 attached, so we really have no way of knowing how to price this or what the evaluation criteria looks like.

Please refer to answer in question 2.

4. I also included a screenshot of the PWS and you'll notice there are some highlighted sections on it as well.

The highlighted section was done internally and is relevant for the requirement.

5. We are performing independent research on the Combined Synopsis/Solicitation (W9124B-26-R-A003). We would like to know if this is a brand-new contract OR if there is (was) an incumbent performing these services. If not brand new, could you please provide the current / previous contract number and what the total contract value was?

This is a Follow-on contract. The current / previous contract number is W9124B-24-D-0001. The total contract value for the IDIQ was Base and All Options Value (Total Contract Value) $5,259,200.00 This is Publicly Available Information via SAM.GOV.

6. Will water be provided by the government? How many Portable toilet and Hand wash stations (ADA and non-ADA) are needed in every location? What is the frequency of the work or service?

Please refer to the PWS and SF 1449.

7. Could you please clarify the number of latrines and handwashing stations requested per year, and confirm the servicing frequency?

Please refer to the PWS and SF 1449

8. The PWS or solicitation documents do not explicitly state whether the quantities reflect a daily or monthly price. As best I can tell, CLIN 10 is computed monthly and everything else is computed daily. That is to say, I'm giving a price on 14,000 semi-permanent unit-months vs 70,000 cantonment unit-days, etc.

Thank you for your inquiry. Please see amended solicitation.

9. What is the duration associated with the quantity desired for each CLIN?

Thank you for your inquiry. The competed solicitation will result in an IDIQ. Reflected quantities are ceilings and the usage of these CLINs are mission dependent with no set predictable parameters. The IDIQ has POPs with one year duration each within which quantities may or may not be ordered and duration of such orders may be for as little as one day or as long as months. Deliveries or quantities are known as the customer’s request to fill their needs.

10. Since this appears to be a recurring or previously executed contract, would it be possible to provide the maximum number of portable toilets and hand wash stations that have been deployed at the same time under this requirement, or the expected maximum for this solicitation?

While there is a consistent need for these services at Fort Irwin to support rotational units and semi-permanent sites, the frequency of delivery orders against this IDIQ is expected to fluctuate significantly. This variability is driven by ongoing Army transformation initiatives, which currently prevent an accurate, long-term forecast of demand. The “minimum guaranteed” from the resulting IDIQ is $2,500.00

11. Could you please confirm whether power connections are available within 100 feet of the service locations?

Power connections are not guaranteed at all service locations, particularly for latrines and hand-wash (HW) stations within austere areas of Fort Irwin's training grounds. As stipulated in the Performance Work Statement (PWS), the contractor is solely responsible for servicing these facilities, including any necessary power solutions.
