The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) is soliciting bids for recycling services across 159 commissaries in CONUS and Alaska. Bidders can propose either a single national sales agreement (Scenario 1) covering all locations or five regional sales agreements (Scenario 2). Bids must be submitted via email by May 26, 2026, with inquiries due by May 21, 2026. The evaluation will use a "Blended Percentage Yield" calculation to determine the highest return to the Government. Awards will go to the highest responsive and responsible bidder, determined by compliance with IFB requirements, SAM.gov registration, and logistical capacity. The final award decision will prioritize the most financially advantageous outcome for the Government, potentially selecting either a national or multiple regional agreements.

This government Statement of Work outlines requirements for the sale and disposal of recyclable materials, including Old Corrugated Cardboard (OCC), plastic, and office paper, collected from 159 commissaries across the CONUS and Alaska. The contract period is June 1, 2026, to May 31, 2031, with bids due by May 26, 2026. The contractor is responsible for pickup, disposal, and payment to the government for these materials, adhering to specific quality and contamination standards. Key aspects include bale specifications for OCC and plastics, a strict protocol for missed pickups and service failures, and requirements for contractor-provided web portals and electronic payments. Alaska commissaries have unique marking and documentation requirements for their bales. The document also details points of contact, operational hours, and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

This document, Exhibit “A,” outlines the material specifications for various grades of plastic bales, likely for a government Request for Proposal (RFP) related to recycling or waste management. It categorizes plastic film into four grades: A, B, C, and Mixed Color. Each grade specifies minimum percentages of clean, dry, clear stretch/shrink film/clear polyethylene bags and maximum percentages of colored film, print, labels, HDPE, and LDPE bags. Crucially, all grades strictly prohibit contaminants such as moisture, trash, food products, bottles, loose paper, corrugated materials, PVC, PVDC, strapping twine or tape, wood, broken pallet pieces, polystyrene, polyurethane foams, polypropylene, PET, oil, grease, hazardous materials, medical wastes, aluminum cans, and metal. Mixed Color Plastic Film has different specifications, allowing for a higher percentage of colored film and potentially including plastic strapping and paper labels/stickers, but still maintaining strict prohibitions against other contaminants. The document ensures clarity on material quality for potential vendors.

The document provides instructions for remitting Automated Clearing House (ACH) credits to the Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA). It outlines the required NACHA record type codes, field numbers, and data elements for setting up an ACH payment. Key information includes the payor's company name, standard entry class code (CCD), intended settlement date, transaction code (22), DeCA's ABA routing number (051036706), DFI account number (800008522092), payment amount, and receiving company name for identification (e.g., DeCA-Invoice#). The instructions specify that DeCA cannot accept a penny test or an “820” file and explicitly state that ACH debits are not permitted to the provided ABA routing number. Contact information for questions is also included.

The document outlines a bid schedule and logistics pickup plan for commissaries across various US states, detailing requirements for Old Corrugated Cardboard (OCC) and plastic shrink wrap/shopping bags. It lists 158 commissaries with contract start and end dates (June 1, 2021, to May 31, 2026), DODAACs, and whether they have space for spotted trailers. For OCC, it specifies estimated annual tons, monthly bales, and minimum pickup frequency (ranging from two times per week to every three weeks, and monthly for some locations). It also includes a sample contact for haulers. A second scenario details a regional bid approach for OCC across five regional areas, with example bid percentages. For plastic, the plan provides estimated annual tons, monthly bales, and specifies pickup with cardboard bales. Bidders are encouraged to provide bids if a local market for plastic exists.
