Linen/Mat/Mop Rental and Cleaning Services

The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) seeking market research on firms capable of providing comprehensive linen, mat, and mop rental and cleaning services at Continental United States (CONUS) commissary locations. The procurement encompasses all personnel, labor, supplies, tools, transportation, and equipment necessary to deliver professional apparel including white butcher coats, shirts, pants, red and colored bib aprons and smocks, as well as black or grey heavy-duty floor mats in various sizes and dust/wet mops. Key requirements include weekly delivery and pickup schedules, quarterly reporting of linen usage, strict quality standards for wrinkle-resistant and stain-free materials, compliance with installation access procedures, and responsible handling of hazardous waste. The evaluation will focus on commercial standards for quality, replacement timelines, cleaning processes, driver compliance with base access requirements, and potential subcontractor involvement. Interested firms must submit their responses via email to Christina Ellison at christina.ellison@deca.mil by September 29, 2025.

This opportunity carries no set-aside designation and is open to all qualified contractors. The RFI explicitly states there are no current incumbents or contractors identified, and no award values or budget ranges have been disclosed at this pre-solicitation stage. Specific quantities include floor mats in multiple dimensions (3'x5', 3'x10', 4'x6') with non-slip backing, professional apparel in sizes ranging from Small to 5X, and various mop configurations, though exact volumes per location are not specified in the available documentation. The agency emphasizes this is strictly for market research purposes with no commitment to issue a solicitation or make any contract awards. DeCA will not compensate respondents for information provided, and all expenses associated with responding to the RFI remain the sole responsibility of participating firms.
