Scrap Sale: DEMILITARIZATION/MUTILATION AS CONDITION OF SALE (DCOS/MCOS) SCRAP RESIDUE IFB 33-6020, Columbus, OH

The contract IFB-33-6020 issued by DLA Disposition Services for the Department of Defense involves the sale of surplus scrap material located in Columbus, Ohio, specifically scrap residue subject to demilitarization or mutilation as a condition of sale. This sale classified under NAICS code 562112 focuses on the removal, handling, and destruction of government property, ensuring compliance with applicable federal, state, local, and DoD regulations, including hazardous material transport requirements under 49 CFR and environmental standards. The contract defines a strict performance window of 25 business days from the start of work meeting, with no formal extensions except under exceptional circumstances approved by the Supply Chain Officer (SCO). The scrap must be removed “as is, where is,” transferring risk and responsibility to the purchaser at the government site, with proper packaging, marking, and destruction of military markings mandated as part of demilitarization procedures. Bidders must submit sealed bids in compliance with Sale by Reference instructions, including Standard Forms SF-114 and SF-114A, before the response deadline and address requirements as specified. The award will be made to the highest-priced, responsible, and responsive bidder—with responsiveness covering compliance with solicitation instructions and responsibility encompassing organizational capability, financial resources, and exclusion from debarment. No FAR-style clauses are directly incorporated; instead, contract clauses are organized internally under lettered sections focusing on purchaser obligations, notices, binding effect, and guaranteed descriptions. Special contract requirements demand designation of key personnel post-award, prohibition on subcontracting or transfer without approval, and strict security protocols for accidental discovery of hazardous or classified materials. Payment is due prior to material removal, and the Notice of Award serves as the billing document. Compliance, record retention for six years, and safety standards such as OSHA and EPA regulations form critical performance criteria, with government inspections occurring at the origin site before contract award and verification of demilitarization after removal. The contract is a one-time, fixed-term sale of surplus property, excluding services, and the purchaser is fully responsible for the transport, liability, and environmental implications of the scrap material acquired.
