A company owned and operated by Ohkay Owingeh Pueblo will soon be providing custodial support services to Los Alamos National Laboratory under a new subcontract, the largest such agreement ever between the Lab and a Native American enterprise.
The subcontract awarded to TSAY Construction and Services LLC has a value of $65 million over five years, according to Acquisition Services Management Division Leader Kevin Chalmers.
The TSAY contract is one of four recently awarded contracts to small or disadvantaged businesses.
The Laboratory awarded a communications subcontract to CNSI Inc., a small business with an office in the Los Alamos Research Park. The competitively bid contract, valued at $32 million, is for three years with an option to extend for another two years. Transition of operations from the existing subcontractor, Qwest Government Services Inc., has begun.
Another competitively bid subcontract valued at $14.1 million went to TEAM Technologies Inc., a company certified by the federal Small Business Administration as a small, disadvantaged business. The contract is for four years with an option to renew for three additional years based on performance. TEAM Technologies Inc. will provide discrete electronic parts and components.
The company is setting up an office in Los Alamos in Central Park Square to warehouse deliveries and provide local customer service.
The Laboratory also awarded a $9.4 million subcontract to Fiore Industries, for hardware and software information technology services over a potential five-year period. The company has set up an office in Los Alamos.
