TRASH SERVICES

The Lawton Indian Hospital is soliciting waste pick-up services under Solicitation IHS1523580, a Firm Fixed Price contract set aside exclusively for Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE) contractors under the Buy Indian Act. The scope requires daily collection of trash Monday through Saturday, excluding federal holidays, for a base period of one year beginning July 1, 2026, with four optional 12-month extensions potentially extending performance through June 30, 2031. The contractor must provide and maintain three eight-yard metal trash containers, replacing them as needed, and submit a detailed performance schedule upon award. All services are performed on-site at the hospital located at 1515 NE Lawrie Tatum Road, Lawton, Oklahoma. The solicitation mandates that offerors self-certify as an Indian Economic Enterprise through the Buy Indian Act Representation Form, maintain that status throughout contract performance, and comply with strict provisions under HHSAR 352.226-1, -3, -6, and -7, including limitations on subcontracting and requirements for Indian employment preference. Offerors must be registered in SAM, possess a valid CAGE Code and UEI, and submit proposals electronically by June 5, 2026, without faxed submissions permitted. Price proposals must be complete, balanced, and broken down by CLIN for the base and each option year, with unbalanced pricing rendering offers unacceptable. Evaluation is based on technical compliance as an all-or-none requirement, past performance verified through CPARS and other records, and price, with award made on a trade-off basis favoring the most advantageous offer, not the lowest price technically acceptable. Contractors are subject to security protocols including FAR 52.240-91 and HHSAR 352.224-71, prohibiting unauthorized access or disclosure of Protected Health Information and Personally Identifiable Information under HIPAA and the Privacy Act. Invoices must be submitted electronically for processing and paid via Electronic Funds Transfer through SAM to the Division of Financial Management in Oklahoma City. Contract oversight is managed by Contract Specialist Jarrod Prince, who also serves as the primary point of contact for submissions and payment instructions, with no named Contracting Officer’s Representative identified.
