Small Business Subcontracting Partner for Waste Services

The contract seeks a certified small business to serve as a subcontractor supporting waste services under the City of Fort Worth’s prime contract, with a mandatory 30% participation goal to be met through direct hauling, logistics coordination, equipment leasing, or compliance-related support. The subcontractor must be formally certified and capable of delivering measurable and verifiable services that directly contribute to the prime contractor’s obligations under the waste services project. Participation must be concrete and documented, ensuring the small business is actively engaged in operational tasks rather than administrative or passive roles. The opportunity is open for proposals until May 28, 2026, with a posting date of May 4, 2026, and is categorized under NAICS code 562998 for other waste management services. The subcontract is tied to a municipal project in Texas, with performance expected to occur locally, though specific geographic details are not provided. Interested parties must access the opportunity through the City of Fort Worth’s BonfireHub portal to submit responses, and while no set-aside type is designated, only certified small businesses are eligible to bid. Compliance with certification requirements and clear demonstration of capacity to fulfill the 30% participation threshold are critical to winning the subcontract.
