https://www.dla.mil/DispositionServices/Offers/Disposal/HazardousWaste/HazWasteDisposal/. &nbsp;Given there is a lack of small business ownership of TSDFs and that disposal costs make up a large portion of the contract dollar value, there is a reasonable probability that a small business would pay more than 50% of the cost of the contract to large businesses.</p> <p>*The Government intends to solicit proposals on SAM.gov and award a Firm-Fixed Priced, Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity Services Contract. &nbsp;The contract is anticipated to have one 30-month base period, followed by one 30-month option period. &nbsp;There is no solicitation available at this time. &nbsp;However, attached is a DRAFT Price Schedule and DRAFT PWS that firms responding to this Sources Sought should use to help determine if they would be able to meet the Limitations on Subcontracting requirements.</p> <p>IF YOUR FIRM IS CAPABLE OF PERFORMING THE REQUESTED SERVICES, WITHOUT THE LIMITATIONS ON SUBCONTRACTING, THE CAPABILITIES PACKAGE DETAILED BELOW IS NOT REQUIRED. &nbsp;In accordance with FAR 6.101(a), with certain limited exceptions, contracting officers shall promote and provide for full and open competition in soliciting offers and awarding Government contracts. &nbsp;If your firm would like to respond to this Sources Sought, but is unable to meet the limitations on subcontracting, please email Aldona.mcmullen@DLA.mil with &ldquo;SOURCES SOUGHT HAZ WASTE Hawaii&rdquo;
