About this opportunity
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Logistics Management Directorate is seeking contractors to dispose of and destroy 1,493 tons of expired meals, including 955,520 individual meals ready to eat (MREs) distributed across 1,659 pallets. The solicitation requires comprehensive disposal services that include pickup, transportation, destruction, and certification that the expired food products will not re-enter public circulation. Contractors must coordinate with FEMA representatives, provide proof of destruction, and submit destruction certificates within seven business days of disposal completion. The evaluation will follow a best value trade-off approach with technical specifications being the most important factor, followed by the disposal plan, and price considerations being the least important. The solicitation has an extremely tight timeline with quotes due by August 13, 2025 at 12:00 PM Eastern, just one day after posting on August 12, 2025.
This procurement is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 562211 (Hazardous Waste Treatment and Disposal) with a size standard of $47 million. The contract will be structured as a firm-fixed price purchase order with a 120-day performance period for completion of all disposal activities. Work will be performed across multiple locations including Aiea, Hawaii and two distribution centers in Puerto Rico (DC Caribbean with 1,298 pallets and Annex Cayey with 632 pallets), totaling 1,930 pallets and 1,667 tons of expired meals. Operations must occur Monday through Friday between 07:30 and 1400 local time, with contractor personnel required to present government-issued identification and comply with warehouse security procedures. All offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and submit their quotes through SAM.gov to be considered for award.
