PSC Category 9680 encompasses nonferrous scrap and metal recycling services, focusing on the procurement, transportation, processing, and recycling of various metal materials. These services include handling scrap metals from industrial and governmental operations, with specific emphasis on precious metals recovery, metal recycling, and processing of metals generated through production or military equipment disposal processes.

Federal Contract Awards within this PSC category demonstrate a pattern of firm-fixed-price contracts primarily awarded by defense and civilian agencies, particularly the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Key contractors include Sabin Metal Corp and Lodestar Recovery, Inc., with contract values ranging from $10,000 to $1,071,693. The contracts typically have performance periods between 1-5 years and are predominantly awarded through full and open competition, with some set-asides for small businesses. These contracts support critical government missions of surplus material disposal, metal recycling, and resource optimization across military and civilian sectors.

The federal contract opportunity in this dataset represents NASA's solicitation for specialized alloy powder (GRX-810) for additive manufacturing, set aside exclusively for small businesses. The opportunity, posted by NASA's Shared Services Center, seeks approximately 750 pounds of powder for specific manufacturing processes at the Glenn Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio. The solicitation requires precise technical specifications, including specific chemical composition ranges and particle size distributions, with a lead time of 6-12 weeks for delivery. Potential vendors must be pre-approved, registered in SAM.gov, and meet stringent material certification requirements.
