- Description
- The Air Education and Training Command (AETC), Randolph Air Force Base (AFB), Texas, is conducting market research to identify organizations that are currently performing Resource Management (RM) concepts for Integrated Solid Waste Management, or have the capability to pursue such resource efficiency opportunities. Please refer to the Resource Management document on the WasteWise website at: http://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/non-hw/reduce/wstewise/pubs/wwupda17.pdf to review the concept that the Air Force is interested in pursuing. RM is a strategic alternative to disposal contracting that seeks to continually improve resource efficiency through enhanced source reduction, recycling, and recovery. By tying incentives to the value of services that foster prevention, reuse, and recycling—with disposal as the last resort—RM encourages alignment of contractors’ activities with the customers’ in a new type of joint effort. AETC is seeking innovative, efficient business practices such as RM that provide significant opportunities to obtain potential cost savings and ultimately a more resource efficient product or process design. This RFI is completely voluntary and does not constitute any form of direction or commitment from the Government, nor will the Government be liable for any costs incurred. This information will be used for MARKET RESEARCH PUPROSES ONLY. Industry is not required to respond for any upcoming solicitation. Your participation is greatly appreciated! Please submit a white paper with your RM capabilities, or planned RM processes. Responses are due no later than 25 Jul 2008 and shall be electronically submitted to Maj Eric Freeman at eric.freeman@randolph.af.mil (210-652-9590), and Capt Carl Jackson at carl.jackson@randolph.af.mil. Questions relative to this RFI should also be directed to these individuals. AS A REMINDER: This is not a Request for Proposal (RFP), but instead is a market research tool to determine the availability and adequacy of potential sources for Resource Management concepts. This is NOT A SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS. THERE IS NO SOLICITATION AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. REQUESTS FOR A SOLICITATION WILL NOT RECEIVE A RESPONSE. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) industry group 5621 (waste collection) and 5622 (waste treatment and disposal) apply. Firms responding to this announcement should indicate their business size, particularly if they are a small business. “Small business” means small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business.
