About this opportunity
The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command at Fort Eustis is seeking sources for laundry and dry-cleaning services through a sources sought notice for a potential 12-month bridge contract. The procurement is specifically for services at the United States Military Academy at West Point, NY, involving a Government-Owned, Contractor-Operated (GOCO) laundry facility. The agency is currently intending to award a sole source contract to PENN Enterprises Inc. under statutory authority 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), but is simultaneously exploring potential competitive procurement options. Interested businesses are encouraged to respond to the sources sought synopsis, with a particular emphasis on small businesses across various socioeconomic categories. Respondents are required to provide detailed information about their capabilities, including previous experience, pricing information, and potential competition enhancement strategies. The response deadline is June 12, 2025, with a planned contract start date of July 30, 2025.
The procurement does not currently have a specific set-aside designation, though small businesses are strongly encouraged to demonstrate their qualifications. The anticipated NAICS code is 812332 for Industrial Launderers, with a size standard of $47 million. While the exact contract value is not specified, the services will cover comprehensive laundry processing including medical treatment facility work, organizational laundry, individual piece rate services, and cadet laundry requirements. The contract will require processing various items with specific turnaround times ranging from 1-3 business days depending on service type. Contractors must be prepared to handle a diverse range of items including uniforms, linens, organizational clothing, and personal garments, with specific emphasis on maintaining high cleanliness and quality standards. The contract will involve operating call offices, managing specialty items, and ensuring compliance with federal, state, and military regulations.
