Jaedong Environment

Jaedong Environment, a for-profit South Korean sole proprietorship based in Waegwan-eup, Chilgok-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do, delivers waste removal and disposal services to the U.S. Army as a prime contractor across 143 federal awards, competing under full-and-open (non-set-aside) procurement exclusively.

Jaedong Environment operates as a specialized waste management and environmental services provider for U.S. military installations in South Korea's Area IV, delivering trash collection, construction debris removal, hazardous materials handling, and food waste disposal. The vendor holds three primary Blanket Purchase Agreements with the Army Installation Management Command Pacific Region: a $3 million BPA (awarded December 2021, performance through January 2027) for garbage and food waste pickup and disposal; a $2.9 million BPA (awarded December 2022, performance through November 2027) for construction and mixed debris removal; and a $2.8 million multiple-award BPA (awarded December 2022, performance through November 2027) for trash, sludge, and waste food removal during military exercises. Representative task orders include a $2.39 million definitive contract exercise for the second option period of trash, garbage, and food waste pickup and disposal at Camp Carroll through December 2028, a $176,278 BPA call for Area IV trash removal services (January 2025–January 2026), and recurring monthly manual BPA calls ranging from under $300 to approximately $95,000. All 143 awards are prime contracts; the vendor carries no subcontract work.

Customer concentration is extreme: the Department of the Army Installation Management Command Pacific Region accounts for 140 awards valued at $23.9 million combined potential value (99.6% of the portfolio), with the Department of the Army Pacific Command holding the remaining 3 awards worth $86 thousand. Work is performed at U.S. Army installations throughout Area IV in South Korea, including Camp Carroll, Camp Henry, Camp Walker, Camp Oscar, and the Busan Supply Center. Award activity has been consistent but declining slightly—19 awards in 2022, declining to 5 in 2026 (through early July)—with only one award facing ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months ($167 thousand potential value), indicating minimal recompete exposure near term. The vendor's NAICS footprint concentrates on solid waste collection (58 awards) and other nonhazardous waste treatment and disposal (56 awards), with PSC coding centered on housekeeping trash and garbage collection (70 awards) and housekeeping waste treatment and storage (38 awards).

The vendor's five parent vehicles are single and multiple-award BPAs under the Army Installation Management Command Pacific Region. BPA W91QVN18A0003 carries 48 task orders worth $1.3 million; BPA W91QVN18A0008 carries 38 task orders worth $829 thousand; BPA W90VN923A0009 carries 28 task orders worth $789 thousand; BPA W90VN923A0006 carries 14 task orders worth $239 thousand; and BPA W90VN922A0005 carries 5 task orders worth $874 thousand. Jaedong Environment registered in SAM.gov in March 2016 and has maintained continuous task order placement under these vehicles since late 2021, demonstrating operational reliability and the Army's reliance on local South Korean waste disposal capacity to support forward-deployed logistics at multiple installations.
