Questions about this lane
- What types of waste collection contracts are available to SDVOSB firms?
- The federal market awards SDVOSB solid waste contracts covering routine refuse collection, single-stream recycling programs, bulk waste removal, and combined environmental services. Most are multi-year contracts at DoD installations and VA facilities, with contract values ranging from $100,000 to over $2M annually.
- Do waste collection contracts require any special certifications beyond SDVOSB status?
- Most NAICS 562111 contracts require a valid commercial hauling license in the state of performance and proof of disposal site agreements. Contracts that include hazardous or regulated waste components may require EPA or state environmental permits. Standard SDVOSB certification through the VA's VetBiz / SBA VetCert program is the prerequisite set-aside requirement.
- How often do federal installation waste contracts rebid?
- Most installation waste collection contracts run a one-year base with four one-year option periods — a five-year total ordering period. When an option is not exercised or the ceiling is reached, the contract recompetes. Monitoring presolicitations 60–90 days out is the best way to position before a recompete opens.
- Can a small SDVOSB firm win a waste contract without owning trucks?
- Yes — many SDVOSB awardees operate as prime contractors and subcontract the hauling to a licensed carrier. The prime must perform at least 50% of the cost of the work with its own employees under the SDVOSB performance-of-work rule, so you need to understand how labor is counted before structuring the subcontract.
- Does the Service Contract Act apply to waste collection work?
- Yes, the Service Contract Act applies to most federal waste collection contracts that meet the size threshold. This sets minimum wages and fringe benefits for your workers. Wage determinations for the installation's county are incorporated into the solicitation; fedlane.us surfaces the SCA reference in each opportunity summary.
