Quick Summary

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Network Contract Office 5, has issued Amendment 0005 to Solicitation 36C24526Q0097 for a Single Award Firm Fixed Unit Price Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for Municipal Solid Waste & Recycling Services for VISN 5 facilities in Washington D.C. and Maryland. This opportunity is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) Set-Aside. Quotes are due by January 27, 2026, at 3:00 PM ET.

Purpose & Scope

The VA seeks comprehensive solid waste removal and recycling services for four VA Medical Centers (VAMCs) and thirteen Community Based Outpatient Clinics (CBOCs) within VISN 5. The scope includes collection, removal, transportation, disposal, and treatment of municipal solid waste (MSW), industrial waste, construction/demolition waste, and tires. A comprehensive recycling program, including education and outreach, is required. The contractor must provide all necessary personnel, equipment, tools, materials, vehicles, and supervision. On-site labor is specifically required at the Baltimore and Washington DC VAMCs. Medical waste collection is explicitly excluded from this solicitation.

Contract Details

This is a Single Award Firm Fixed Unit Price BPA. The anticipated ordering start date is April 1, 2026, with a base period extending through March 31, 2027, and four one-year option periods, potentially extending the contract through March 31, 2031. Individual BPA Orders may reach up to $1,000,000.00. Services will be performed at numerous locations including the Washington, DC VA Medical Center & CBOCs, and Baltimore, MD VA Medical Center & CBOCs, as detailed in the Statement of Work (SOW) and pricing sheets.

Key Updates (Amendment 0005)

Amendment 0005, published January 23, 2026, primarily updates the Price/Cost Schedule Attachment (v3) and the Solicitation Attachment_DC/MD Solid Waste and Recycling Price Sheet (v3). These updates include changes to estimated quantities for specific CLINs/SLINs, notably 0209 AA-AC, 0409 AA-AC, and their respective option year CLINs (1209, 2209, 3209, 4209, 1409, 2409, 3409, 4409). All other terms and conditions of the solicitation remain unchanged.

Evaluation & Submission

Award will be made to the best-valued quote based on comparative evaluations of Technical, Past Performance, and Price. This is a tiered evaluation process, prioritizing SDVOSB, then VOSB, then Small Business concerns. Offerors must be active and verified in SBA's Dynamic Small Business Search (DSBS) and SAM, and must confirm they will perform 50% of services. Bidders must use the updated pricing sheets (v3) to provide unit pricing for all items, explaining any items they cannot supply.

Important Notes

Previous amendments extended the Q&A deadline to January 12, 2026, and confirmed the RFQ submission deadline of January 27, 2026. Site visits were facilitated on January 9, 2026. The latest Q&A (v3) clarifies container requirements (new replacements), on-site labor staffing, and confirms medical waste is not included. The Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) outlines performance standards and evaluation metrics.
