This opportunity is classified under NAICS code 562111 (Solid Waste Collection) and involves a firm-fixed-price contract. The Special Notice takes the form of a Request for Information (RFI), which is a preliminary market research tool designed to identify capable vendors before formal solicitation. The government intends to award the contract to a qualified contractor who can manage comprehensive waste management operations at the installation. This Special Notice does not represent a binding commitment from the government to issue a formal solicitation or award a contract.

Interested vendors must submit responses to the RFI by March 27, 2026, at 2:00 PM EST to Jason Burke, Contract Specialist, at jason.m.burke.civ@army.mil. Respondents are required to provide company name and address, point of contact, telephone number, email address, CAGE Code, primary NAICS code, business size designation, and current System for Award Management (SAM) registration status. The contractor will be responsible for furnishing all labor, tools, materials, equipment, transportation, and supervision necessary to collect solid waste from 86 collection sites twice weekly, manage weekly recyclable pickups, handle specialized collections for paint waste and other materials, and dispose of all waste at Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection-approved landfills. The contractor must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and obtain all necessary permits and licenses at no cost to the government.
