The solicitation, numbered IHS1522314, was posted on May 27, 2026, and closing date for bids is June 11, 2026, at 10:00 AM Eastern Time. The contract is scoped under NAICS code 561710 for facilities support services, with a primary performance location at US Hwy 160 South, Milepost 394.3, Kayenta, AZ 86033.

Contractors must submit Safety Data Sheets, maintain detailed activity logs, and ensure all equipment and chemicals comply with healthcare facility safety protocols.

The government will evaluate proposals based on technical capability, proposed scheduling and task durations, and cost/price in a trade-off selection process—meaning the lowest-priced offer is not guaranteed selection. Electronic submission of invoices is mandatory via the Treasury’s Invoice Processing Platform (IPP), and all contractors must comply with strict security requirements including daily check-ins with hospital security, restricted work hours, and safeguarding of information systems.

Only offerors certified as ISBEEs are eligible to bid, and all must maintain current SAM registration, self-certify as small businesses under the $17.5 million size standard, and comply with additional reporting obligations for subcontracting and employment verification.
