Purchase Order DOLB104R23004

The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) awarded a $1,160 firm fixed-price purchase order to the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) on March 31, 2010, for conference registration services. The contract, with an ultimate completion date of May 28, 2010, was performed in Arlington, Virginia, and carried no set-aside designation, indicating AIHA competed on a full and open basis. As a non-profit organization specializing in industrial hygiene, occupational health, and environmental safety services, AIHA provides critical support to federal agencies through laboratory accreditation, proficiency testing, and analytical services that help maintain workplace safety standards across multiple sectors.

This purchase order represents a relatively small engagement typical of AIHA's transaction history with federal agencies, which generally range from approximately $2,500 to $30,000. AIHA's broader contract portfolio with MSHA and other civilian and defense agencies demonstrates the organization's established capability in supporting federal safety and health assessment programs. The conference registration likely supported MSHA's mission-critical activities related to mine safety and occupational health in the coal and metal mining industries.
