How to bid on FCC Florence grease trap cleaning for the Bureau of Prisons
What FCC Florence is buying
The Federal Bureau of Prisons wants quarterly pumping, cleaning, and waste disposal for five grease interceptors at FCC Florence in Colorado: three 12,000-gallon units and two 6,000-gallon units. The opportunity is described as a single-award, firm-fixed-price purchase order.
This may suit a small business that can perform recurring interceptor service and include waste disposal and related charges in a fixed-price quote. The award will use a lowest-price technically acceptable approach.
Key dates and the quote deadline
The solicitation is expected to be available on or about October 29, 2026. The opportunity listing gives a deadline of November 9, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. ET, while the description says quotes are anticipated by November 9 at 4:00 p.m. The stated times conflict.
Check the solicitation and any amendments on SAM.gov for the controlling deadline and submission instructions. Do not rely on either listed time until you confirm which applies.
Who this opportunity suits
This is set aside for small businesses. Offerors must have active SAM.gov registration, including completed representations and certifications, before the solicitation closes.
It is relevant to firms that provide grease interceptor pumping, cleaning, and waste disposal and can show that their proposed service meets or exceeds the Government’s stated requirement.
