The Performance Work Statement (PWS) outlines the requirements for a non-personal services contract for refuse collection and recycling services to support the 99th Readiness Division (RD) for fiscal year 2025. The contractor is responsible for all necessary personnel and equipment to ensure a clean and safe workplace in compliance with relevant regulations. The contract spans a 12-month base year with four optional renewal years. Key objectives include implementing effective quality control, adhering to specified hours of operation, and maintaining facilities at designated locations in Johnstown, PA. The contractor must report on employee qualifications and maintain a specific collection schedule while managing waste and recyclable material according to local and federal standards. Furthermore, the PWS emphasizes safety protocols, environmental regulations, and a contingency plan for potential disruptions. Contractor personnel must also complete training on antiterrorism, operations security, and adhere to security regulations on Army property. The government will evaluate contractor performance using a Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) to ensure compliance with contract standards and address any deficiencies. Overall, the PWS aims to uphold a high standard of waste management and recycling in support of government operations.
