Purchase Order DOLB074R21235

On October 1, 2006, the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA), a non-profit organization based in Falls Church, Virginia, was awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $6,140 for services to be performed at Arsenal, PA. The contract, which carried no set-aside designation, indicates AIHA competed on a full and open basis. AIHA was selected based on its established expertise in industrial hygiene, occupational health, and environmental safety services, which the organization has consistently delivered to federal agencies through laboratory accreditation, proficiency testing, and analytical services related to chemical, biological, and environmental hazards.

The purchase order was scheduled for ultimate completion on September 30, 2007, and represents one of numerous federal contract awards AIHA has received from defense and civilian agencies including the Defense Health Agency, Naval Sea Systems Command, Air Force Materiel Command, and the Mine Safety and Health Administration. AIHA's federal work typically encompasses specialized services such as environmental lead testing, mine dust determination, silica and quartz analysis, and metal dust assessment that support critical safety and health assessment programs across military medical facilities and industrial research centers. The firm fixed-price structure reflects the well-defined nature of the services to be delivered under this purchase order.
