About this opportunity
The Indian Health Service is seeking sources for on-site shredding services at the Yakama Service Unit with responses due by July 20, 2026. This is a sources sought notice to inform market research prior to formal solicitation; no quotes are being requested at this time. The requirement is set aside for Total Small Business.
Performance is at the Yakama Indian Health Center in Toppenish, Washington. The contractor shall provide locked shred container leasing, monthly on-site document destruction, and on-demand services. Required equipment includes eight 64-gallon wheeled bins with document slots, three 32-gallon wheeled bins with document slots, and two locking consoles, all keyed alike with copies provided to the facility. All paper materials must be shredded to particles measuring 1 millimeter by 5 millimeters or smaller using cross-cut shredding that meets or exceeds NSA/CSS Policy Manual 9-12 standards. The contractor must provide service reports, manifests, or certificates of destruction upon request and notify the Facility Manager at least 48 hours in advance of scheduled services or service interruptions.
The anticipated requirement includes a one-year base period and four one-year option periods. IHS previously issued Solicitation No. 75H71326Q0027 as an Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise set-aside but received no quotes. This market research effort seeks to identify the availability and capability of Native-owned small businesses, HUBZone, service-disabled veteran-owned, 8(a), veteran-owned, woman-owned, and small disadvantaged businesses under NAICS 561990 before determining whether to pursue an unrestricted solicitation or another set-aside approach. Contractor personnel require intermittent on-site access only and will be escorted by IHS employees; no background investigation is required.
