Aqua-Pure Inc.

Aqua-Pure Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, supplies water treatment chemicals to the federal government as a prime contractor (100% of awards), competing in open, full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designations. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation operating under primary NAICS codes in basic inorganic chemical manufacturing and water supply systems, with a tightly concentrated customer footprint anchored to a single agency relationship.

Aqua-Pure's federal work is nearly entirely captive to the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs Rocky Mountain Region, which accounts for eleven of twelve awards (97% of combined potential value at $351 thousand). The single outlier is one $5 thousand award from the Department of the Interior's National Park Service Intermountain Region. The vendor holds a single-award BPA (140A0424A0004) with the BIA Rocky Mountain Region effective August 7, 2024, through July 31, 2028, with a $50 thousand ceiling. Against this BPA vehicle, Aqua-Pure has received eight task orders for water treatment plant chemicals serving the Crow Agency water treatment facility in Crow Agency, Montana. Recent representative call orders include $15,757.50 (January 12, 2026), $12,787.50 (April 23, 2025), $12,600 (March 31, 2026), $11,746.36 (November 20, 2024), and $4,455 (December 16, 2025), all for Crow Agency water treatment operations. The vendor also holds or held a prior purchase order arrangement with the same agency valued at $85,781.29 (January 1, 2022 award date, December 31, 2024 completion). The BPA structure positions Aqua-Pure as the sole provider of water treatment chemicals to the Rocky Mountain Region during the contract term, with task orders issued periodically to support ongoing facility operations.

Award velocity shows modest recent activity — one award in 2022, three in 2024, and five in 2025 — after a multi-year quiet period. Combined potential value across all twelve awards documented in the source reaches $356 thousand, with $306 thousand obligated (86% of potential). The established relationship with the BIA Rocky Mountain Region extends back to at least 2012, reflecting sustained vendor performance in a specialized niche. Aqua-Pure does not operate as a subcontractor and carries no sub-award footprint in the source data. The vendor's capability footprint is narrow and specialized — it functions as a dedicated chemical supplier for federal water treatment infrastructure, with no apparent diversification into other service lines or customer agencies beyond the single BIA regional relationship and the marginal NPS award.
