About this opportunity
The Billings Area Indian Health Service is conducting a sources sought notice to identify small business capabilities for providing laundry services to the Crow-Northern Cheyenne Hospital in Crow Agency, Montana. The procurement requires a contractor to provide twice-weekly pickup and delivery of laundered linens and entry/dust control mats, adhering to strict performance standards established by the American Institute of Laundering, Joint Commission, and OSHA. Interested small businesses must demonstrate their capability, experience, and ability to provide the required services as outlined in the attached statement of work, with generic capability statements being insufficient for evaluation. The evaluation will focus on the company's direct demonstration of capacity to perform the specialized laundry services with required germicide cleaning, separate sorting areas, and quality control measures. Responses must be submitted via email to Kenneth.Nicholson@ihs.gov by July 21, 2025, and should include the sources sought ID in the subject line to ensure proper receipt.
This opportunity is set aside for total small business participation under NAICS code 812332 (Industrial Launderers). The contract involves processing approximately 49,000 pounds of soiled linen and 240 entry/dust control mats annually, with services performed at the hospital located at 1 Hospital Way, Crow Agency, Montana. The contract structure includes one base year with four potential one-year option periods, allowing for up to five years of service delivery. Quality requirements include maintaining a maximum reject rate of 5% per item count, with all laundered items required to be free from spots, stains, holes, and foreign matter. The contractor must provide specialized services including pre-sorting delivered items by size and type, wrapping clean microfiber cloths in impervious bags, and allowing inspection by the hospital's Housekeeping Department upon each delivery. No incumbent contractor or budget range information was provided in this sources sought notice.
