About this file

This is a treatment chemical specifications document for the Onslow Water & Sewer Authority (ONWASA) in North Carolina, detailing requirements for the 2026 Treatment Chemicals Reverse Auction. The solicitation is structured as a multistep competitive sealed bid process consisting of Phase 1 (Unpriced Technical Proposals) and Phase 2 (Price Proposal/Reverse Auction). Technical proposals must be submitted prior to 2:00 pm on Monday, August 31, 2026. ONWASA has partnered with EasiBuy, LLC to host the Phase 2 reverse auction event on its web-based bidding platform. The document specifies the chemical products and materials required to support the Authority's water and wastewater treatment operations, including detailed technical specifications, quality standards, and performance requirements that vendors must meet to qualify for consideration.

The specifications establish the technical criteria and acceptance standards for all treatment chemicals to be supplied under this contract. Bidders must demonstrate compliance with applicable industry standards, regulatory requirements, and ONWASA's operational specifications through their technical proposals. The reverse auction format will be used to determine final pricing after technical qualifications have been evaluated and approved, allowing ONWASA to secure competitive pricing from qualified suppliers. Award and contract commencement dates will be determined following completion of both phases of the bidding process. Vendors should review all specifications thoroughly to ensure their products and capabilities align with ONWASA's treatment requirements before submitting technical proposals.
