About this opportunity
The Indian Health Service (IHS) Pinon Health Center is conducting market research to identify potential contractors for infectious waste management services. The agency seeks a vendor to provide comprehensive waste disposal solutions, including labor, equipment, red bags, storage barrels, transportation, treatment, and disposal for the health center. Interested parties must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov) and submit a response by April 25, 2025, to Tanya Begay via email. The submission must include a company profile with details such as UEI, business size, ownership type, socio-economic status, and capability statements demonstrating relevant experience. Evaluation will focus on the company's ability to meet the specific requirements outlined in the Statement of Work, with particular emphasis on compliance with federal, state, and local environmental regulations.
The contract opportunity is not set aside for any specific business type, though Indian-owned economic enterprises are encouraged to apply under the NAICS code 562113 with a small business size standard of $47 million. While no incumbent contractor is mentioned, the Statement of Work indicates a monthly waste collection requirement with autoclave treatment and detailed reporting mechanisms. The contractor will be responsible for providing Department of Transportation HazMat training to the health center's housekeeping staff and maintaining certified scales for waste weighing. Additional requirements include preparing collection manifests, maintaining a complaint log, and submitting annual environmental compliance reports. The scope of services is specifically for the Pinon Health Center, which serves the Navajo Nation in Arizona, suggesting a localized but critical healthcare waste management contract.
