Grease Interceptor Pumping Services for VA Reno

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration, Veterans Integrated Service Network 21, is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) for grease interceptor pumping services at the VA Reno Health Care System located at 975 Kirman Avenue, Reno, Nevada. This is a market research initiative to assess vendor availability and capability rather than an official solicitation, though responses may lead to a formal procurement. Interested vendors must submit complete responses addressing seven specific items, including company information, an informal pricing estimate, capabilities statement, business size classification, UEI number, and details on existing IDIQ contracts with GSA, NASA SEWP, DLA eCAT, VA SAC, or VA NAC. The RFI response deadline is April 14, 2026, at 10:00 AM HST, with the final day for submitting questions or requesting clarifications set for April 9, 2026, at 10:00 AM HST. All inquiries should be directed to Contract Specialist Shanel Pagaragan at Shaneldylana.Pagaragan@va.gov, and the anticipated posting date for the formal solicitation is early May 2026.

This procurement carries no small business set-aside designation. The contract scope involves bi-annual pumping of a 5,000-gallon grease interceptor in March and September, and quarterly pumping of a 1,500-gallon grease interceptor in March, June, September, and December, with all services to be performed between 5:00 AM and 7:30 AM on weekdays to minimize disruption to patient care operations. The contract will run for a base period from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027, with four option years extending through June 30, 2031, with services required to commence within 90 days of contract award. The contractor must provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, waste disposal, and comply with industry standards, local/state/federal regulations, and VA facility policies including parking restrictions and prohibitions on tobacco and vaping. No incumbent contractor or estimated award value is identified in the RFI documentation, though vendors should anticipate the service requirements and associated costs in preparing their informal pricing estimates for submission.
