Chemtreat, Inc.

Chemtreat, Inc., a division of Veralto Corporation, manufactures and supplies industrial water treatment chemicals and related services to federal agencies as a prime contractor operating on full and open competitive terms with no SBA certifications. Chemtreat, headquartered in Glen Allen, Virginia, is a for-profit manufacturer of goods competing predominantly in the chemicals and water purification space across 64 distinct federal customer agencies, with 760 of its 765 recent awards (99% of the footprint) as prime contracts.

The vendor's federal portfolio concentrates on three capability streams. First, recurring chemical consumables for facility water systems—cooling tower chemicals, boiler treatment, water softener salt pellets, chiller chemicals, and biocides—delivered under supply schedules and blanket purchase agreements. Second, water treatment maintenance and system support including laboratory testing, chemical analysis, equipment repairs, and operator advisory services. Third, non-recurring water system modifications such as piping replacements, equipment installations, layup operations, and facility-specific treatment plan implementations. Concrete work examples include a $1.93 million Option Year 2 delivery order with the National Institutes of Health Construction for recurring water treatment services at NIH Bethesda and Glen Allen facilities (September 2024); a $1.4 million five-year delivery order from the Department of Agriculture for boiler, chiller, closed-loop, and incinerator wastewater chemical treatment at the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility in Manhattan, Kansas (April 2025); a $1.03 million delivery order from the Department of Agriculture for a reverse osmosis system and water softener installation at a central utility plant (July 2025); and a $272 thousand purchase order from the Department of Veterans Affairs for industrial water treatment services, including weekly site visits, twice-monthly testing, operator training, and 24-hour emergency response at a VA health care facility in Fresno, California (August 2026).

Chemtreat's customer concentration is anchored by the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health Construction, which accounts for 35 awards and $37 million in combined potential value—nearly 49% of the vendor's total potential-value footprint across the top five customer agencies. The Marine Corps (42 awards, $759 thousand), the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons facilities including Federal Correctional Complex Florence (33 awards, $564 thousand), Federal Correctional Institution Milan (25 awards, $330 thousand), and United States Penitentiary Hazleton (21 awards, $323 thousand) round out high-volume transactors. By dollar value, the concentration is more extreme: NIH Construction alone represents $37 million of the $75.8 million combined potential value, with the Department of Veterans Affairs and Marine Corps contributing materially smaller shares.

Chemtreat places work under three primary parent vehicles. The Federal Supply Schedule GS10F7720A (322 task orders, $5.4 million potential value) serves as the highest-volume ordering vehicle, likely a legacy GSA schedule or CLIN structure supporting chemical supply orders. The Multiple Award Schedule carries 88 task orders valued at $20.8 million combined potential value and represents the principal vehicle for water treatment chemicals and services across civilian agencies including NIH, Bureau of Prisons facilities, and VA networks. Chemtreat's largest single-award indefinite delivery contract, awarded by NIH Construction on October 1, 2022, carries a $10.2 million ceiling through September 2027 and has generated 31 task orders totaling $11.7 million in combined potential value; this IDC underwrites the vendor's most substantial federal work, including recurring deliveries of salt pellets, layup chemicals, laboratory testing, and system maintenance at NIH Bethesda and Glen Allen locations. A single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Washington Headquarters Service (August 2024, $24,001 ceiling through August 2029) has funded three calls totaling approximately $120 thousand for industrial water treatment chemicals including tower cleaners, biocides, and inhibitors.

Recent award activity has grown modestly year over year—from nine awards in 2022 to twenty in 2025, with thirteen awards recorded in 2026 through late September. The recompete cliff in the next twenty-four months is modest: only six awards (combined potential value $1.9 million) face ultimate completion dates within that window, indicating limited near-term recompete exposure for the vendor or competing primes. Chemtreat maintains a minimal subcontract footprint (1% of awards, five sub-awards), with named primes including Professional Contract Services, Inc. (base operations facility maintenance and water treatment system management); Valiant Government Services LLC (chemical water treatment services at Fort Detrick for Building 8100, three-year value $35,937.06); Bering Global Solutions, LLC (corrosion inhibitor and biocide treatment for open-loop cooling systems at Naval Support Activity Hampton Roads, Option Year 4); and M.C. Dean, Inc. (annual and recurring water treatment during TIM III San Antonio Exercise Option Period 4). Chemtreat operates on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule with a single active labor category—Field Service Engineer at $151.13 hourly—requiring a bachelor's degree and ten years of experience with no security clearance required, reflecting a largely equipment- and consumables-oriented delivery model rather than staffing-intensive service operations.

As a subsidiary of Veralto Corporation, Chemtreat holds no independent SBA certifications and competes in full and open procurements without set-aside protections. The vendor's federal footprint is categorized predominantly under NAICS 325998 (All Other Miscellaneous Chemical Product and Preparation Manufacturing) with secondary presence in NAICS 325199 (All Other Basic Organic Chemical Manufacturing) and PSC codes for Chemicals (311 awards) and Miscellaneous Chemical Specialties (191 awards), grounding the capability characterization in industrial chemistry and water system expertise rather than service contracting.
