Large Group Linen & Laundry

The City of Dallas is seeking qualified bidders to provide comprehensive large group linen and laundry services during emergency or disaster situations where individuals are displaced from their primary residence for 24 hours or longer, or in support of evacuations from other areas of Texas. The procurement is structured as a five-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) service price agreement covering Dallas County and multiple jurisdictions within Dallas City. Potential vendors must demonstrate extensive experience in emergency response linen and laundry services, with the ability to rapidly deploy resources to support displaced populations. The solicitation requires respondents to complete standard forms, provide detailed team composition information, and meet specific operational requirements outlined in the attached specifications document. Key submission materials include the OPS-FRM-640 Team Make-Up and Local Workforce Form, and the bid is due by November 21, 2025, with the original posting date of October 23, 2025.

The contract opportunity does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or minority enterprise restrictions based on the provided documentation. The attached vendor list suggests multiple potential service providers may be eligible to compete. Insurance requirements are detailed in a separate attachment, indicating specific coverage standards vendors must meet. While a precise award value is not specified, the emergency response nature and five-year contract duration suggest a potentially significant financial opportunity for the selected vendor(s). The procurement appears focused on establishing a responsive, reliable linen and laundry service capability that can be rapidly mobilized during crisis situations across Dallas County and surrounding municipal jurisdictions. Vendors will need to demonstrate operational readiness, quick deployment capabilities, and the capacity to handle large-scale emergency linen and laundry service requirements.
