Description
The Department of the Air Force, through the 374th Contracting Squadron at Yokota Air Base, Japan, is issuing a two‑step Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) to obtain innovative commercial waste‑management solutions. The solicitation targets (1) on‑base refuse disposal and incinerator operation and (2) off‑base refuse disposal services. Offerors must submit a brief white‑paper by the Step 1 deadline, after which selected firms will be invited to submit a full technical and price proposal. The effort is expected to be funded in FY 2028 with an approximate five‑year performance period and an estimated contract value upward of $150 k, though higher amounts may be considered for innovative proposals.
• Scope includes assessment, repair, refurbishment, or replacement of the aging on‑base incinerator (built 1984) and provision of off‑base waste collection/transport services.
• Required deliverables: technical solution overview, ROM cost estimate, schedule, and compliance with Japanese and U.S. environmental regulations.
• Evaluation criteria (equal weight) cover technical relevance, feasibility, ROM cost realism, and past performance; awards may be made for one, many, or none of the proposals.
