Water Treatment Services ITQ

The Department of General Services (DGS) of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is soliciting qualified suppliers to submit qualifications for a statewide Water Treatment Services Invitation to Qualify (ITQ) contract. The purpose of this ITQ is to establish a pool of pre-qualified suppliers to provide water treatment services for non-potable water systems, such as boiler systems, steam generating systems, HVAC systems, cooling towers, and recirculating hot and cold water systems at various Commonwealth agencies. Suppliers must have at least two years of experience, possess a PA DEP Chapter 252 Laboratory Accreditation Certificate, and employ a Certified Water Technologist (CWT) and/or Water Treatment Chemist. Qualifications will only be accepted electronically through the JAGGAER portal, and suppliers must first register as a PA Supplier and create a user profile, selecting the appropriate commodity code. The contract will have an initial term that may be extended at the Commonwealth's discretion.

This ITQ is open to any qualified supplier, and there are no set-aside designations or restrictions mentioned. The solicitation documents do not provide information on any incumbent vendors, current contract values, or available budget ranges. However, the contract will allow local public procurement units and state-affiliated entities to participate through the COSTARS program, and contractors electing to permit COSTARS Members to procure from the contract must pay an administrative fee and report COSTARS sales to DGS on a quarterly basis.
