On January 24th, 2000, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and Kaiser-Hill (K-H) signed a first-of-its-kind closure contract to complete the safe, accelerated cleanup of the Rocky Flats Environmental Technology Site by a target date of December 15th, 2006, at a target cost of nearly $4 billion. This contract represents the next generation of DOE contract reform and contains key provisions for increased subcontract competition and safety and performance incentives.

Over the remaining life of the project, Kaiser-Hill expects to procure services and commodities such as:

• Analytical Sampling and Analyses
• Waste Treatment and Disposal
• Decontamination and Demolition
• Heavy Equipment Needs
• Information Technology and Communications
• Health and Safety Equipment and Supplies
• Security
• Facility Infracstructure Services
• Office Supplies
• Training
• Food Services
• Environmental Restoration.

Rocky Flats procurements will feature best-in-class safety and environmental performance criteria, increased subcontractor risk, and substantial competition among subcontractors.
