The Department of Veterans Affairs intends to award a 90-day bridge contract for waste management services to the incumbent, Tri-County Recycling, Inc., covering the performance period of October 1 through December 29, 2026. This sole-source action is needed to maintain continuity while the government completes a competitive follow-on acquisition and allows transition time for the successor contractor. The incumbent is considered the only source currently able to provide uninterrupted service due to its existing containers, compactors, equipment, routes, personnel, and operational capability. However, all responsible sources may submit a quotation or capability statement in response to the forthcoming request for quotation. Interested parties must demonstrate they can perform the full requirement and begin services on October 1, 2026, without interruption.
