The Bureau of Prisons is forecasting a recompete solicitation for infectious waste removal services at the Federal Medical Center (FMC) Devens in Ayer, Massachusetts. This indefinite delivery contract will be set aside exclusively for small businesses and requires the contractor to provide hazardous waste treatment and disposal services in accordance with the statement of work. The solicitation is estimated to be released on January 1, 2026, with an anticipated award date of October 1, 2026.

The estimated award value ranges from $450,001 to $475,000, with the contract structured as a firm-fixed-price indefinite delivery vehicle featuring a base period plus four option periods. Services will be performed at the FMC Devens facility located in Ayer, Massachusetts. Interested contractors should contact Craig Redd, the Contracting Officer, at credd@bop.gov or (202) 598-6041, or reach out to the Bureau of Prisons Small Business Program at bop-adm-smallbusinessprogram-s@bop.gov. A request for information is planned as part of the procurement process.

This recompete replaces the existing single-award indefinite delivery contract 15B20521D00000227, which was awarded to Stericycle Inc. on October 1, 2021, with a ceiling value of $318,935.76 and a completion date of September 30, 2026. Under the previous contract, Stericycle provided infectious medical waste removal services through firm fixed-price delivery orders ranging from $24,010.14 to $36,959.16, supporting the facility's medical care and confinement operations. The upcoming recompete, designated as a small business set-aside, represents an increase in estimated contract value compared to the incumbent award.
