Description

THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION NOTICE This is a market survey for information and planning purposes only. This Request for Information (RFI) serves to improve the understanding of Government requirements and industry capabilities regarding Waste Management Services which focus on recycling as the primary means of waste removal. This RFI should allow potential offerors to judge whether or not the Government's requirements can be satisfied within the offerors' capabilities. Funding is not available at this time. North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code: 562111. BACKGROUND The John D. Dingell Veteran Affairs Medical Center (JDDVAMC), 4646 John R, Detroit, MI. 48201 has a requirement for waste management solutions for the JDDVAMC and all of its subordinate facilities. The solution should focus on recycling as the primary means of waste removal. The solution should be able to seamlessly manage all waste from all locations with a single point of contact and have the ability to manage and handle all recyclables, including those identified as hard to recycle. The ultimate goal of the solution should be to transition the JDDVAMC to a zero landfill management system or as close is as possible to a zero landfill management system. The initial objective is to recycle a minimum of 50% of the annual waste stream each fiscal year while generating funds from those recycling efforts that either meet or exceed the cost of the program. Solutions for management of waste should include materials from general, regulated, medical, construction and bulk waste streams. The solution must include centralized reporting for all waste streaming and updating of VA reporting systems of waste on a monthly basis. The solution should also provide a web based method for retrieving reports that is customized for our waste streams and provides real time data along with environmental impacts of our recycling program. The anticipated performance period is FY 2016 - FY 2017 plus four (4) one-year option periods. SMALL BUSINESS DETERMINATION In order for the Government to set aside any acquisition over the Simplified Acquisition Threshold ($150,000), there must be a reasonable expectation that offerors can satisfactorily perform contract requirements and that award will be made at a fair market price. Total set-asides cannot be made unless such a reasonable expectation exists. The Government believes that it is mutually beneficial to determine the capability of offerors eligible for set-asides early in the procurement process in order to preclude the need for a modification of the acquisition strategy later. Your response will assist greatly in the formulation of an acquisition strategy that maximizes the participation of small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business or women-owned small business concerns. Interested firms are asked to respond to this RFI with your experience, capabilities and business size status (either large or small) for waste management solutions. VENDOR CAPABILITY Interested and qualified vendors are encouraged to: 1)Send a summary of their company's capabilities, and company history/information, license to operate in Michigan and any information you deem beneficial to this RFI. 2)Describe capability to meet requirements listed above. 3)Include your company's point of contact, address, e-mail address, telephone, DUNS, Socio-economic identification (WOSB, SDVOSB, VOSB, etc.).

Include your company name in the subject line of your e-mail. Responses due Friday, May 29, 4:00 pm (EDT). Provide information via e-mail to: Primary Point of Contact: Gregory Stevens Contracting Officer e-mail gregory.stevens@va.gov NOTE TO RESPONDERS Submitting company information does not bind the Department of Veterans Affairs for any future solicitations or contracts resulting from this RFI.
