Barclay Water Management, Inc.

Barclay Water Management, Inc., a Newton, Massachusetts-based subsidiary of Ecolab Inc. (via parent Nalco Company LLC), delivers water treatment, testing, Legionella remediation, cooling tower maintenance, boiler water treatment, and potable water management services to federal facilities as a prime contractor (99% of recent awards) across civilian agencies without material reliance on set-aside categories. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation competing predominantly full-and-open; while some awards carry Total Small Business set-aside designations, the majority of recent work flows from unrestricted competition.

Barclay's customer concentration sits heavily with the Department of Veterans Affairs' health-care footprint. The Veterans Integrated Service Network 2 dominates by award count (70 awards, $4.6 million combined potential value), followed by VISN 1 (30 awards, $1.9 million), VISN 5 (9 awards, $1.1 million), and VISN 10 (2 awards, $907 thousand). However, the GSA Federal Acquisition Service anchors the potential-value ranking with a single $8.3 million award — a GSA Federal Supply Schedule vehicle (GS10F7721A) that carries 89 task orders valued at $1.6 million combined, indicating recurring operational demand across many federal sites rather than a single massive contract. The top five customer agencies account for 81% of combined potential value. Capability work includes a $762,591 Total Small Business water treatment services order with VA VISN 2 at James J. Peters VA Medical Center in Bronx, New York (through June 2028); a $300,000 lease-and-operation award from VISN 2 for two monochloramine-generating units at Syracuse VA Medical Center (through June 2028); a $249,897 boiler and water tower chemical treatment order from VISN 1 in Bedford, Massachusetts (through September 2028); and ongoing smaller purchase orders for emergency water testing, Legionella remediation, and water quality monitoring at Federal Correctional Institution Milan, Federal Medical Center Devens, and multiple VA medical centers.

Vehicle position centers on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (52 task orders, $2 million combined potential value) and the GSA Federal Supply Schedule (89 task orders, $1.6 million), supplemented by single-award IDCs with VA VISN 5 ($770,721 ceiling through June 2029), Federal Correctional Institution Milan ($89,705 ceiling through September 2027), and Federal Medical Center Devens ($65,632 ceiling through February 2026). Barclay also holds a single-award BPA with Federal Correctional Institution Berlin ($99,045 ceiling through February 2030) for water and treatment services. Activity has remained steady — 9 to 14 awards per year from 2022 to 2025, with a single award recorded in 2026 through the snapshot date — and eight awards totaling $1.8 million in combined potential value face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure. The vendor operates primarily as a direct prime contractor; sub-award presence is minimal (2 of 317 total awards), consisting of water treatment work under Valiant Government Services LLC (Building 6904 renovations at USARIEM, 2024) and South Dade Air Conditioning & Refrigeration Inc. (facility management and water treatment at Alexander Hamilton, 2024).

Service Contract Inventory data shows minimal SCI-reportable activity — zero prime invoicing in FY2024, zero FTEs recorded across the three-year SCI window (FY2022–FY2024) — reflecting that Barclay's federal revenue is dominated by goods (chemicals, treatment systems, equipment) and task orders under $150,000, both of which fall outside SCI reporting thresholds. The vendor's federal award portfolio is concentrated in chemical supply and water quality services (175 awards under NAICS 424690, "All Other Miscellaneous Chemical Product and Preparation Manufacturing"; 29 awards under PSC Environmental Systems Protection—Water Quality Support), with smaller volumes in facilities support, testing, and plumbing and HVAC contracting. Barclay Water Management operates as an operational subsidiary of Ecolab Inc.'s water-services division, leveraging its parent's global water and hygiene solutions platform while maintaining a dedicated federal-sector footprint centered on correctional facilities, VA medical centers, and federal detention centers across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic.
