The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration, Veterans Integrated Service Network 16, has issued a pre-solicitation notice for grease trap cleaning services under solicitation number 36C25626Q0013. The procurement falls under NAICS code 562998 (All Other Miscellaneous Waste Management Services) and Product Service Code J045 (Maintenance/Repair/Rebuild of Equipment - Plumbing, Heating, and Waste Disposal Equipment). The contracting office is located through the VA Gulf Coast Veterans Health Care System (GCVHCS) in Biloxi, Mississippi, with the place of performance in the 39216 zip code area. The response deadline is September 19, 2025, at 12:00 PM Central Time, making this an extremely time-sensitive opportunity. The solicitation will remain archived for 60 days following the response date, though no specific evaluation criteria have been disclosed in this pre-solicitation phase.

This procurement opportunity is set aside exclusively for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBC), reflecting the VA's commitment to supporting veteran entrepreneurs in the contracting process. No incumbent contractors or potential competitors have been identified in the available documentation. The pre-solicitation notice does not specify award values, budget ranges, contract duration, or the frequency and scope of grease trap cleaning services required. Additional details regarding quantities, service schedules, and financial parameters are expected to be provided in the full solicitation document when released. The narrow timeline between the pre-solicitation notice and response deadline suggests this may be following an expedited procurement process.
