About this opportunity
The Indian Health Service (IHS), a component of the Department of Health and Human Services, is conducting market research for tree removal services at the Albuquerque Indian Health Center located at 801 Vassar Drive NE, Albuquerque, NM. The specific project involves removing one dead Ponderosa Pine Tree (59.0" DBH) and smaller dead branches on nearby cedar trees, classified under NAICS code 561730 for Landscaping Services. Potential contractors must submit responses by January 14th, 2025 at 5:30 pm MST to Shandiin DeWolfe via email, including their company name, Unique Entity Identifier (UEI), business size status, and a capability statement demonstrating service provision capacity. Evaluation criteria will focus on verifying SAM registration, business classification, and ability to meet the project's technical requirements. Respondents must complete and submit the IHS Indian Economic Enterprise (IEE) Representation Form, indicating whether they meet the definition of an Indian Economic Enterprise.
This Sources Sought Notice is specifically targeted as an Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE) Set-Aside, in alignment with the Buy Indian Act, which mandates preference for Indian Economic Enterprises when possible. Eligible businesses must self-certify their Indian ownership and economic enterprise status, with qualification required throughout the solicitation, award, and contract performance periods. While no specific contract value is mentioned, the scope appears to be a relatively small, localized tree removal project. The IHS is exploring whether an ISBEE set-aside or a total small business set-aside would be most appropriate for fulfilling the project requirements. Potential contractors can propose alternative NAICS codes if they believe a different classification is more suitable, and must demonstrate their capability through supporting documentation such as past performance information or product brochures.
