e-PROCUREMENT #2024-001 LOS SANTOS AREA SANITATION PROGRAM

DATE OF e-NOTIFICATION: 27/JUN/2024 e-TENDERING DEADLINE: ON GOING


SUMMARY

With the passing of the 2030 Agenda by the Los Santos City Council and the Office of The Mayor, the City of Los Santos has launched the Los Santos Area Sanitation Program (LSASP). This initiative is dedicated to improving the cleanliness of Los Santos and its surrounding county. The program's primary focus is addressing waste management issues, reducing litter, and promoting sustainable practices to ensure a cleaner, healthier environment for all residents. Through coordinated efforts involving multiple city departments and private sector providers, the Los Santos Area Sanitation Program aims to enhance the quality of life, support environmental sustainability, and create a more attractive and livable city for everyone.

Rather than being a single contract, the Los Santos Area Sanitation Program will be divided into multiple contracts, each linked to a specific district within the City and County of Los Santos. This approach allows for more efficient resource allocation, addressing each district's sanitation needs. By breaking the program into several contracts, the City encourages fair competition among the various waste management companies within the community. This not only ensures a higher quality of service but also promotes local business growth and improvements in waste management practices. Each contract will be awarded based on a competitive bidding process, with stringent criteria to ensure that only the most capable and committed companies are selected to participate in this crucial initiative.

This public contract entails the following:

  • 1. ROUTES
    The contractor shall consult with instructed city personnel to design and implement an efficient sanitation route for the district they are contracted to service sanitation needs for.
    Effective time management is expected from the contractor and the ability to provide transparent decision-making. The contractor shall at all times keep legal frameworks in mind, such as OSHA and environmental protection measures in mind.


    2. COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL
    The contractor shall provide waste collection and disposal services for residential and commercial properties in their contracted district. This includes regular collection of household waste, recyclables, and commercial refuse, as well as bulk waste and hazardous material collection.

    All waste must be sorted to maximize recycling and reduce landfill use, adhering to local, state, and federal regulations. Hazardous and non-recyclable materials must be disposed of with minimal environmental harm, using eco-friendly methods. Regular audits and reporting will ensure transparency and accountability, aligning operations with the city's environmental goals and legal requirements.


    3. THE DISTRICTS
    The contractor will be able to apply for one of five (1/5) districts, a total maximum of two (2/5) total at any given time. The five districts consist of the County, Northern, Western, Central and Southern Districts. View the district map HERE.
