About the company
Solvchem Inc., a minority-owned, Hispanic American-owned for-profit corporation based in Pearland, Texas, manufactures and supplies specialty chemical products to the Department of Defense and federal civilian agencies, operating as a prime contractor on 94% of its recent awards and as a subcontractor on the remainder. The vendor's portfolio centers on isopropyl alcohol (IPA), propellants, and other inorganic and organic chemical specialties for test, evaluation, and support operations.
Solvchem's customer base tilts heavily toward defense logistics and Army materiel operations. The top customers by award count are the Defense Logistics Agency (27 awards, $171 thousand combined potential value), the Department of the Army (9 awards, $110 thousand combined potential value), and NASA Johnson Space Center (7 awards). The top-customers-by-potential-value ranking surfaces a different concentration: Defense Logistics Agency Energy anchors the dollars with 5 awards totaling $882 thousand, followed by DLA Aviation's 27 awards at $171 thousand. This divergence reflects Solvchem's role as a high-volume, small-dollar supplier — most awards cluster under $50 thousand, with the energy-focused DLA tranche representing larger individual orders. The top five customer entities account for 72% of recent award volume.
Solvchem places work under five primary indefinite-delivery contracts, led by SP045001D4024 (20 task orders) and SPM4A607D2786 (6 task orders, $154 thousand combined potential value). Additional vehicles include W52P1J04D3000, W52P1J04D3001, and DAAA0902D3003, each hosting three to five task orders. The vendor's NAICS concentration spans All Other Basic Inorganic Chemical Manufacturing (24 awards), All Other Miscellaneous Chemical Product and Preparation Manufacturing (16 awards), and All Other Basic Organic Chemical Manufacturing (14 awards). PSC codes align closely: Miscellaneous Chemical Specialties dominates at 58 awards, followed by Chemicals (24 awards) and Chemical Weapons and Equipment (6 awards). Recent subcontract work includes recurring isopropyl alcohol deliveries to test-evaluation-support teams across multiple 2022–2025 task orders under prime contractor vehicles.
Activity has remained light in recent years — one award in 2024, four in 2025 through October — against a portfolio spanning 109 total awards since 1987. Combined potential value across all awards is $2.4 million, with obligated dollars reaching $3.9 million, indicating significant task-order execution against lower-ceiling contract vehicles. The vendor holds no federal contract IDVs directly but operates exclusively through subcontracting relationships and task orders issued by DoD logistics and materiel commands on their existing vehicles.
