Waste Audit Services

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, through the Department of General Services, is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) under solicitation number 6100066670 to identify qualified companies capable of performing waste minimization and recycling audits. These services will be conducted at various Commonwealth facilities across Pennsylvania, including offices, parks, museums, courts, hospitals, correctional facilities, and maintenance facilities. The primary objective is to provide technical assistance to agencies, evaluate the effectiveness of current recycling practices, identify opportunities for waste reduction or diversion, and generate consistent data for the Commonwealth Agency Recycling Office (CARO). The scope of work involves a structured process including document reviews, site interviews, site visits, and focused waste characterization. Deliverables required for the completion of an audit include a concise final report with recommendations, a completed Site Audit Form, and confirmation that the site can utilize the Department of General Services Waste Reporting Tool. Auditors are expected to follow the GreenGov Waste Audit Plan and the Commonwealth's established audit process, utilizing EPA Volume-to-Weight Conversion Factors where necessary. While this is a pre-solicitation RFI and not a formal contract award, most individual assignments are estimated to be valued between 15,000 and 25,000 dollars, with an example project timeline spanning approximately 18 weeks.
