AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Department of Defense, through DLA Disposition Services, is seeking qualified small businesses—specifically 8(a), HUBZone, woman-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses—to perform hazardous waste removal and disposal services in and around Tucson, Arizona. The scope of work encompasses the full lifecycle management of a wide range of regulated and hazardous materials, including RCRA and non-RCRA hazardous wastes, batteries, corrosive and flammable substances, compressed gas cylinders, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), AFFF and other PFAS-related wastes, reactive and toxic materials, and demilitarization-required items. Services include waste collection, storage, transportation, sampling and analysis, lab packing, industrial cleaning, rolloff and vacuum box rentals, FRAC tank rentals, and expedited removals, all performed in strict compliance with local, state, Department of Defense, and federal regulations under EPA/RCRA, OSHA, and DOT standards. Packaging, labeling, manifesting, and placarding must meet exacting requirements, with strict prohibitions on improvised placards and specific protocols for handling reactive metals, lithium batteries, and incendiary items. The contract is structured as a Firm-Fixed Price, Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) award with a 30-month base period and a potential 30-month option period. A critical and unique requirement is the application of FAR 52.219-14 Limitations on Subcontracting, modified by Class Deviation 2021-O0008, which restricts the contractor from paying more than 50% of the contract value to non-similarly situated subcontractors. Given that nearly all Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facilities (TSDFs) in the industry are large businesses and disposal costs represent a major portion of contract expenditures, small businesses must demonstrate a viable path to compliance with this rule. Respondents are required to submit a three-page capabilities package including company information, CAGE code, small business status, relevant experience with contracts or subcontracting roles, a detailed explanation of how they will meet the 50% limitation despite industry constraints, and a list of all TSDFs proposed for use with a designation of whether each is similarly situated. All submissions must be received by July 2, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. EST, and failure to meet these requirements will result in rejection. Responses will inform the
