Here is a two paragraph summary of the key products and services being delivered under the federal contract IDV award, associated task orders, and original solicitation: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Baltimore District awarded Dubois Chemicals, Inc., a for-profit manufacturer, a single-award indefinite delivery contract (IDC) valued up to $2,806,440 through October 2026. The IDC is for the purchase and delivery of liquid fluorosilicic acid to treat drinking water at the Washington Aqueduct facility in Washington, D.C. in accordance with ANSI/AWWA standards. This includes an initial $359,709.12 firm fixed-price delivery order through January 2024, and a subsequent $298,790.64 delivery order through August 2024. Fluorosilicic acid is used to adjust the pH and supplement fluoride in potable water. The original pre-solicitation notice indicated the requirement was open to businesses in the basic inorganic chemical manufacturing industry with 1,000 or fewer employees, without any set-aside designations. Dubois Chemicals has an extensive history as a prime contractor providing fluorosilicic acid to U.S. government agencies including the Department of Defense, General Services Administration, and Department of the Treasury. The contract scope, pricing, and performance requirements demonstrate the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' need for a reliable supplier of fluorosilicic acid to treat drinking water at the Washington Aqueduct facility. As a single-award IDC with a multi-year ordering period, this contract provides the agency with the flexibility to issue delivery orders as required to meet their chemical treatment needs over an extended time frame. The pre-solicitation indicates the Corps sought offers from small to mid-sized businesses in the basic inorganic chemical manufacturing industry to fulfill this requirement.
