About this opportunity

The Indian Health Service, operating under the Department of Health and Human Services, has issued a Notice of Intent to Award for linen laundry and dry-cleaning services at the Tsaile Health Center located in Tsaile, Arizona. This Special Notice announces the agency's intention to award a sole source, non-competitive purchase order to Elite Laundry Company based on their unique qualifications to provide the required services. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 812320 (Drycleaning and Laundry Services) and PSC code S209 (Housekeeping-Laundry/Drycleaning). The contract is structured as a one-year base period beginning April 1, 2026, with four optional one-year renewal periods extending through March 31, 2031. The sole source justification is predicated on Elite Laundry Company being the only organization capable of meeting hospital-grade laundering requirements while ensuring continuity of service to support direct patient care operations.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to inform the public of the government's intent to proceed with a non-competitive award while providing an opportunity for interested parties to submit evidence that competition would be advantageous to the government. Any responses must include clear and convincing evidence supporting competitive procurement and must be submitted by the closing date of February 27, 2026. The Indian Health Service has reserved the right to proceed with the sole source award without further notice if no substantive written objections are received by the deadline. Interested contractors should note that the government is under no obligation to acknowledge receipt of submissions or provide feedback on information provided. If competition is deemed warranted based on responses received, any subsequent solicitation will be conducted separately, and information submitted will be used solely for determining the necessity of competitive procurement procedures.
