Roberts Oxygen Company Inc was awarded a blanket purchase order (PO05397970) by the Virginia Department of Health on July 6, 2026, for the supply and delivery of dry ice. The contract is valued at $4,394.00 and covers approximately 50 pounds of dry ice to be delivered weekly to Samantha James, with the understanding that weekly volumes will fluctuate between zero and 100 pounds based on operational needs. The award was processed as a blanket purchase order for fiscal year 2027, enabling the Virginia Department of Health to procure materials on an as-needed basis throughout the performance period.

The contract encompasses two line items: dry ice supply at a unit price of $2,054.00 and shipping costs at $2,340.00. Roberts Oxygen Company Inc was selected over competing vendors, including alternative supplier Linde, based on demonstrated cost savings. The procurement process included outreach to Small Women-owned and Minority-owned Business Enterprise (SWaM) vendors; however, two such vendors did not respond to solicitation requests. The cumulative contract value of $4,394.00 reflects the combined cost of materials and transportation for the fiscal year 2027 period of performance.
