About this opportunity
The Rock Island Arsenal, under the Department of the Army Materiel Command Contracting Command, is soliciting quotes for Penetrate Ultra Liquid and related chemical products for their Joint Manufacturing and Technology Center. The procurement includes 41 drums of Penetrate Ultra Liquid Black Oxide for Steel and 38 drums of PX-5 Liquid for Black Oxide Process, both manufactured by Dubois Chemicals and distributed through HeatBath Chicago. This is a sole-source procurement justified by the proprietary chemistry of the Penetrate Ultra Liquid, which is the only chemistry the Joint Manufacturing and Technology Center uses to apply black oxide finish to steel, and replacing it would require significant research and development. The government intends to award a firm fixed price contract to the lowest priced, responsive, responsible vendor whose quote conforms to requirements, with evaluation based on lowest total evaluated price and no anticipated discussions. Quotes must include shipping costs to Rock Island Arsenal and are due by 6:00 PM Central Standard Time on June 30, 2025, with a Certificate of Conformance required for each shipment.
This solicitation does not utilize any set-aside designations and is restricted to HeatBath as the sole source supplier due to the proprietary nature of the required chemicals. The procurement involves a total of 79 drums of specialized chemical products with delivery required within 6 weeks after contract award. Performance will take place at Rock Island Arsenal in Rock Island, Illinois, with shipment directed to the facility's Transportation Officer. Payment processing will be handled through Wide Area Work Flow (WAWF) electronic invoicing system. While specific contract values are not disclosed in the solicitation documents, this procurement falls under the simplified acquisition threshold and is being processed as a micro-purchase action under Purchase Order Number W519TC25Q270.
