SPECIAL NOTICE/INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE CSU Regulated Medical Waste Disposal Services

The Billings Area Indian Health Service intends to award a sole source commercial contract to Stericycle Inc. for the biweekly pickup and disposal of biomedical waste at Crow/Northern Cheyenne Hospital in Crow Agency, Montana, under the authority of FAR 6.103-1, as Stericycle is the only capable provider in the area. This action is designated as an 8(a) Sole Source set-aside, and no competitive solicitation is being issued; however, other firms have seven days from the notice’s publication date to submit written notification if they believe they can provide the services, for the government’s consideration in determining whether to open the requirement to competition. The contract performance location is specifically at the hospital in Crow Agency, Montana, with services required twice monthly, though no contract duration, period of performance, or estimated value is specified. The contracting office is located in Billings, Montana, with Katrina Eaglefeathers identified as the primary point of contact. The procurement is classified under NAICS code 562112, with no details provided regarding contract type, pricing, delivery terms, inspection protocols, packaging standards, invoicing methods, or specific clauses. No formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, or technical specifications are included, as this is a notice of intent rather than a complete solicitation or executed contract. The agency has not provided information on payment offices, accounting codes, COR/COTR designation, or required certifications from the contractor, and no attachments or supplemental documentation are referenced. The sole justification for non-competition rests on the unique availability of Stericycle Inc. to fulfill the service requirement in the remote location.
