    Description

    The Department of Defense, specifically the Department of the Air Force, is seeking a contractor for the destruction of classified information technology (IT) equipment under the contract FA9401-23-P-0031. The procurement focuses on the disposal of computers, servers, peripherals, and other items that have been in contact with U.S. Government classified information, requiring compliance with specific destruction standards. HVF Precious Materials has been identified as the sole contractor capable of fulfilling these requirements due to its approval by the Air Force Office of Special Investigation (AFOSI) and its proximity to Kirtland Air Force Base, which minimizes transportation costs and time for government personnel. Interested parties can reach out to Elizabeth Ongstad at elizabeth.ongstad@us.af.mil or Nathaniel Bovell at nathaniel.bovell@us.af.mil for further information.

    The document is a Single Source Justification for a simplified acquisition by 377 MSG/PK for Classified Material Disposal, specifically for AFRL/RDOSZ. The requirement is for the destruction of classified IT materials, including computers and servers, by an Air Force Office of Special Investigation Special Projects (AFOSI PJ) approved facility. HVF Precious Materials is identified as the sole contractor meeting all requirements due to its AFOSI PJ approval and proximity, which minimizes travel time and associated costs for government personnel transporting classified materials. Efforts to obtain competition through a SAM.gov sources sought notice on December 7, 2022, yielded five responses. However, all other respondents were deemed unsuitable due to various deficiencies, including failure to meet destruction specifications (e.g., shredding size, types of equipment), lack of AFOSI PJ certification, unauthorized reselling/reusing of equipment, or inability to allow government personnel to witness destruction or accompany materials. The contracting officer determined that only HVF Precious Materials is reasonably available, and this will remain a single-source requirement until another AFOSI PJ-certified facility opens within a specific radius of Kirtland Air Force Base.
