This federal contract award is for the procurement of an X-ray fluorescence (XRF) device by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Region 4 - Intermountain Region. The $28,780.00 firm fixed-price purchase order was awarded to E & C Johnson Company, a small business contractor that has previously supplied portable XRF analyzers to federal agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency and Department of the Interior. The XRF device will enable field analysis of metal compounds and contaminants in materials like paint, soil, and minerals, supporting environmental oversight and remediation activities managed by the agency. As a total small business set-aside contract, this award aligns with the government's initiatives to direct contracting opportunities to small enterprises.
