About this opportunity

The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is seeking a small business contractor to provide laundry processing services for Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay in Georgia. The contract will involve laundering linen sets consisting of two sheets, a pillow case, and a CPO spread, with occasional blankets included. Specific operational requirements include random drop-offs based on ship schedules, with each drop-off estimated at 875 pounds of laundry. While vendors cannot directly access the base due to security restrictions, the government may consider off-campus pickup and delivery locations if the proposed process meets their turnaround time requirements. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on March 13, 2025, with responses due by March 18, 2025, indicating a tight timeline for potential contractors to prepare and submit their proposals.

The contract is designated as a total small business set-aside, targeting small business vendors in the Drycleaning and Laundry Services industry. The previous incumbent, known as "Bubbles", was charging $1.75 per pound through an open purchase program, which may serve as a reference point for pricing. The performance location is specified as 580 USS Mariano G. Vallejo Ave, King's Bay, GA 31547, with a 40-mile radius reference point for logistical planning. The government will handle both pickup and delivery services, with an emphasis on maintaining strict security protocols. While specific award values are not explicitly stated, the contract appears to be structured around weight-based pricing, with estimated drop-off quantities and potential variability in service frequency based on naval ship schedules.
