John Edgar Hoover (JEH) Waste Management Services

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is soliciting waste management services for the John Edgar Hoover (JEH) Building located in Washington, DC through a Request for Quote (RFQ). The contract will operate on a firm-fixed price basis for a base period plus four option periods running from February 1, 2026 through January 31, 2031. Key requirements include establishing a Mini-Material Recovery Facility to receive, sort, recycle, and transport trash, debris, and compostable waste, with operations scheduled Monday through Friday between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM Eastern Time, excluding federal holidays. The FBI will award the contract to the offeror submitting the lowest priced technically acceptable quote, meaning all proposals must meet the minimum technical requirements outlined in the Statement of Work to be considered for award. The deadline for submission questions was December 16, 2025 at 12:00 PM EST, and revised quotes must be received by January 14, 2026 at 5:00 PM EST, with all inquiries directed to Ms. McKenzie Bucher at mpbucher@fbi.gov.

This procurement is exclusively set aside for small businesses certified as HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned (SDVOSB), or Women-Owned (WOSB) entities. Based on fiscal year 2024 baseline data, the facility generated approximately 968.45 tons of trash and debris plus 400 tons of recyclable materials annually, providing cost estimating context for potential bidders. The primary place of performance is the first basement level of the JEH FBI Headquarters Building in Washington, DC, though the Statement of Work was revised on January 12, 2026 to indicate that performance may extend to additional nearby facilities within the Northern Capital Region as needed, with site visit opportunities available upon vendor request. All contractor personnel will be required to undergo background investigations, obtain facility access badges, and comply with FBI security policies and protocols. Personnel must also satisfy privacy, security, and cybersecurity compliance obligations per DOJ requirements, with payment terms established at NET 30.
