About Ross County Water Company, Inc.
Ross County Water Company, Inc., doing business as Rural Water Utility, is a tax-exempt non-profit water utility based in Chillicothe, Ohio, that provides potable water utility services to federal facilities as a prime contractor, operating exclusively on non-set-aside full-and-open procurements. The company has served the Department of Veterans Affairs since at least 2005 and holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with VA's Veterans Integrated Service Network 10 valued at $3.011 million through December 31, 2030.
Rural Water Utility's federal footprint is narrowly concentrated with a single customer accounting for the vast majority of activity. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 10 represents 37 of 55 total awards (67% of awards by count) and $10.6 million of the $13.4 million combined potential value across all awards. General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Region 5 and the Department of Agriculture Rural Utilities Service account for the remaining activity. Two parent vehicles anchor task ordering: Indefinite Delivery Contract GS05P05GAD0168 carries 26 task orders valued at $789 thousand combined potential, and Indefinite Delivery Contract GS05P15GAD7000 carries 11 task orders valued at $2 million combined potential.
The company's concrete capability is potable water supply, treatment, and delivery to the Chillicothe VA Medical Center. The January 4, 2026 blanket purchase agreement (firm fixed price, single award) consolidates a multi-year ordering relationship and specifies sourcing via a 16-inch ductile iron main line at 120 PSI minimum pressure, treatment to 150 PPM maximum hardness, and chlorination to 1.0–1.2 PPM, with an estimated 115,000 gallons per day consumption and monthly maximum of five million gallons. Prior annual delivery orders on the VHA NETCENTS-2 vehicle ranged from approximately $148,000 to $218,000 per fiscal year across FY22 through FY25. Rural Water Utility operates as a 100% prime contractor with no subcontract footprint in the source data.
Activity is minimal and flat: one award each in 2022, 2023, and 2024; two awards in 2025; and two in 2026. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $4.2 million, representing 31% of the combined $13.4 million potential value. The company is not positioned for growth beyond its core Chillicothe VAMC relationship, which represents a sustained but geographically and customer-specific water utility operation.
