Garbage pick up and disposal

Solicitation FN1603-26 is a Request for Proposal issued by Federal Prison Industries (UNICOR) for a single-award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to provide waste pick up and disposal services at the FPI Coleman facility in Florida. This HUBZone small business set-aside under NAICS 562212 has a five-year term with a maximum not-to-exceed value of 7,000,000 dollars and a guaranteed minimum of 1,000 dollars. The contractor is responsible for providing all labor, supervision, and equipment, specifically compactors with no open tops and lockable hopper doors, to collect, transport, and dispose of solid waste and recyclables. Services must be performed Monday through Friday between 3:00 AM and 5:00 AM, with a frequency of two to five pickups per dumpster weekly. The government will evaluate proposals using a trade-off process based on technical ability (pass/fail), past performance (adjectival rating), and price fairness and reasonableness. Award is not based on the lowest price technically acceptable approach, allowing the government to select a higher-priced proposal if the benefits justify the cost. Strict security and safety protocols are in place, including Personal Identity Verification (PIV) for personnel, mandatory non-disclosure agreements, and annual DOJ privacy and cybersecurity training. Invoices must reference the purchase order number and be submitted via email to the central accounts payable office, with payments handled through the System for Award Management.
