Description
The Navy’s Military Sealift Command is conducting a market research (Sources Sought) to identify qualified small‑business vendors capable of providing secure on‑site shredding and media‑destruction services at Naval Station Norfolk and surrounding MSC facilities. The effort will support recurring destruction of non‑record, classified (up to Secret) and CUI/FOUO material, ensuring compliance with NSA and DoD security standards.
• Scope includes on‑site collection and immediate destruction of paper, CDs/DVDs, hard drives, SSDs, and cell phones up to Secret level; top‑secret material is excluded.
• Contractor must field U.S.‑citizen personnel with active Secret clearances, appropriate certifications, and equipment meeting NSA secret‑level shredding specifications.
• Service frequency is monthly (second Thursday of each month) with a potential base period of 7 months (Feb 2027 – Aug 2027) or a 5‑year option structure, and the solicitation is set‑aside for SBA‑eligible small businesses.
• Requirements include providing lockable collection bins, timely Certificate of Destruction submissions (within 2 business days), and strict reporting of any security incidents within 30 minutes.
• All small‑business categories (SDVOSB, WOSB, HUBZone, 8(a)) are encouraged to respond.
