About this opportunity

The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services intends to enter into a single-source agreement with AirGas USA, LLC for the procurement of noble gases by June 22, 2026. This is a notice of intent under statutory requirements; prospective vendors who believe they can provide these commodities must submit relevant information by the June 22 deadline.

The scope covers pure, specialty, and industrial noble gases (UNSPSC 12142000) to support laboratory operations across three internal divisions — Agricultural Environmental Services, Consumer Services, and Food Safety — for sample preparation, analytical instrument operation, and sample analysis in support of regulatory programs covering fertilizers, feeds, pesticides, weights and measures, food safety, dairy products, and meat and poultry inspection. Performance is statewide across Florida.

The estimated contract value is up to $300,000, with an approximate contract amount of $200,000, over a one-year term. The justification for single-source procurement asserts that AirGas USA, LLC is the only known source capable of providing the required quality, variety, and timely delivery of gases necessary to meet operational needs throughout Florida, citing AirGas's adequate and consistent supply, responsive support, and critical regional presence as essential to operational continuity and mission-critical laboratory performance. Multiple division directors, administrators, and the Purchasing Director II have approved this procurement approach.
