The Defense Logistics Agency Energy (DLA Energy) awarded Dixie Chemical Company, Inc., a Houston-based manufacturer of specialty chemicals, a single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract in June 2020 as a Total Small Business set-aside. The five-year, $12,760,379.88 contract requires Dixie Chemical to produce, blend, drum, store, and distribute up to 500,000 gallons of Jet Propellant 10 (JP10) and 20,000 gallons of Propellant, High Density (PF-1) to DLA Energy facilities in Pasadena, Texas. These specialized fuels and propellants support DLA Energy's aerospace energy programs, which in turn enable various Department of Defense operations.
Under this IDIQ contract, DLA Energy has issued multiple firm fixed price delivery orders to Dixie Chemical for the supply of these critical products. Recent delivery orders have ranged from tens of thousands to over $2 million in value, with the latest awards requiring Dixie Chemical to provide JP10 jet fuel, PF-1 missile propellant, and associated drumming and storage services. This contract vehicle demonstrates Dixie Chemical's role as a prime contractor supplying high-performance aerospace energy products to the U.S. military.
