About this opportunity
The Bureau of Prisons Federal Correctional Institution McKean is seeking qualified waste removal businesses to provide grease trap pumping and cleaning services at its facility in Lewis Run, Pennsylvania. This is a sources sought announcement, meaning that a formal solicitation has not yet been released and the government is conducting market research to inform the future procurement. The contractor must demonstrate capability to service two grease traps (a 10,000-gallon unit within the secure perimeter and a 2,000-gallon unit at the satellite camp) using specialized equipment including pump trucks, scrapers, hoses, and vacuums to remove fat, oil, and grease buildup from tank sidewalls, baffles, and effluent filters. Critical requirements include performing services on a quarterly basis or as needed, conducting visual inspections, reporting any damage to facility staff, and complying with all institutional regulations and prevailing wage requirements established by the Department of Labor Wage Determination 2015-4249. Responses to the market research questionnaire must be submitted by April 10, 2026, with future solicitation information to be distributed exclusively through sam.gov. Evaluation criteria will emphasize firms' ability to provide firm-fixed unit prices, secure security clearances for all personnel, meet timeline commitments, and maintain appropriate insurance coverage.
This procurement is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, meaning only firms meeting the small business size standard of $16.5 million in gross annual revenue are eligible to compete. No incumbent contractor is identified in this sources sought announcement. The contract structure will be an indefinite-delivery, requirements-type contract with a 12-month base year followed by up to four optional 12-month years and an additional optional 6-month extension, providing potential contract duration of up to five and one-half years. The specific award value is not disclosed at this pre-solicitation stage, as the government will determine pricing based on firm-fixed unit prices submitted by contractors in response to the formal solicitation. All contractors must verify Small Business Administration registration status, confirm eligibility for applicable small business programs (8(a), women-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, or HUBZone, if applicable), and comply with subcontracting limitations to participate in this opportunity.
