About this opportunity
The U.S. Coast Guard is soliciting quotations for eStrip GPX Type VII Corn (Starch-g-Acrylic) Blast Media through Request for Quotation (RFQ) number 70Z03826QK0000006, issued on January 14, 2026, with quotations due by January 21, 2026. This is a brand-name procurement for a specialized blast media product manufactured exclusively by Archer Daniels Midland and distributed through MIDVALE GROUP, INC. (CAGE Code: 3NKN8). The solicitation requires all items to be new approved parts with clear traceability to the original equipment manufacturer, accompanied by a Certificate of Conformance in the format specified under FAR clause 52.246-15. Award will be made on a firm-fixed-price basis to the lowest-priced, technically acceptable offeror representing the best value to the government, with pricing evaluated for fairness and reasonableness. While this is a brand-specific acquisition, the Coast Guard notes that any responsible source capable of providing the required Type VII blast media will be considered, and all offerors must provide necessary certifications demonstrating traceability to the manufacturer.
This is an unrestricted procurement with no set-aside designation, meaning all responsible sources may compete. The solicitation seeks 10 containers of blast media for delivery to the USCG Aviation Logistics Center in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, with a required delivery timeframe of 30 days after receipt of order, though early and partial deliveries are acceptable. The estimated procurement value falls within the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, indicating a relatively modest contract value. The applicable NAICS code is 327910 (Abrasive Product Manufacturing) with a small business size standard of 900 employees. MIDVALE GROUP, INC. is identified as the authorized distributor for the Eastern United States, and while the specific contract value is not disclosed in the notice, the procurement is structured as a simplified acquisition that will likely result in a single purchase order award based on technical acceptability and price.
