Federal Supply Schedule GS07F9314S

Hach Company, a subsidiary of Danaher Corporation headquartered in Loveland, Colorado, holds a Multiple Award Schedule Federal Supply Schedule contract with the General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service. The contract, awarded February 1, 2006, with an ultimate completion date of January 31, 2026, carries a ceiling value of $21.7 million and includes no small business set-aside designation. The contract encompasses a comprehensive portfolio of environmental measuring instruments and water quality testing products, including standard solutions (calcium, iron, nitrogen, ammonia, chloride, and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), sensor mounting equipment, wading rod kits, suspension cable assemblies, and universal sensor mounts. The price list reflects geographic coverage of the 48 contiguous states and Washington, District of Columbia, with points of production located in Loveland, Colorado; Ames, Iowa; and Berlin, Germany. Hach maintains a maximum order limitation of $250,000 per purchase order with a minimum order of $100, offering quantity discounts of 12 percent for single orders of $75,000 and higher. Standard delivery is promised within 30 days after receipt of order, with freight costs absorbed by Hach Company on regular, non-expedited shipments delivered within the continental United States.

The contract has generated substantial delivery order activity across multiple federal civilian and defense agencies, including the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Washington Aqueduct), U.S. Navy (Naval Sea Systems Command), U.S. Geological Survey, Environmental Protection Agency, National Park Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Forest Service, and Department of the Interior. Recent delivery orders (2017–2025) demonstrate consistent demand for spectrophotometers, flow meters, multiparameter sensors, chlorine monitoring systems, nitrax analyzers, digital sensors, controllers, calibration reagents, and equipment maintenance services. Individual delivery orders have ranged from less than $200 to over $448,000, with firm fixed-price pricing predominating. Performance locations span from Washington, District of Columbia to Hawaii, reflecting the geographically dispersed nature of federal water quality monitoring operations. This Multiple Award Schedule contract serves as the parent vehicle for Hach's water quality procurement activities, enabling federal agencies to rapidly acquire specialized analytical instrumentation and consumable supplies essential for environmental compliance, water resource management, and research activities across civilian natural resource agencies and military installations.
