Specialized Materials And Chemicals, LLC

Specialized Materials And Chemicals, LLC is a for-profit limited liability company headquartered in Brigham City, Utah (with operations also noted in Perry, Utah) that serves as a specialized supplier to the U.S. Department of Defense through federal contract awards. The company is registered in SAM.gov and maintains an active federal contractor status, focusing exclusively on the supply of ammonium perchlorate, a critical chemical oxidizer essential for solid rocket propellants and munitions manufacturing. As a strategic supplier to the defense industrial base, Specialized Materials And Chemicals has established itself as a key vendor for the Army's ammunition and ordnance production capabilities.

Since 2023, Specialized Materials And Chemicals has received multiple delivery orders from the U.S. Army's Joint Munitions Command totaling over $24.8 million in contract value across seven individual delivery orders. These delivery orders have consistently been for the supply of ammonium perchlorate supporting production at the McAlester Army Ammunition Plant. The delivery orders, which range in individual value from $347,400 to $7,973,640, have been awarded under firm fixed-price contract arrangements with no small business or socioeconomic set-aside designations, indicating unrestricted competition. Order completion dates have extended from August 2023 through December 2025, demonstrating sustained demand for the contractor's specialized chemical products. All awards have been issued by the Joint Munitions Command, a component of the U.S. Department of the Army Materiel Command, reflecting the critical nature of the company's role in supporting ongoing defense ammunition production requirements.

Specialized Materials And Chemicals currently holds two active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the Joint Munitions Command. The first IDV, awarded on March 30, 2023, carries a ceiling value of $23,727,600 with an ultimate completion date of March 29, 2026, and has been the source vehicle for multiple delivery orders issued through 2025. The second and more recent IDV, awarded on September 3, 2025, represents a substantially larger commitment with a ceiling value of $49,500,000 and an ultimate completion date of September 2, 2028. This newer contract specifically requires the delivery of ammonium perchlorate meeting Military Specification MIL-DTL-32103 and Weapon Specification 18485A, with anticipated weekly demand of 36,000 pounds and potential three-year quantities ranging from 72,000 to 4,600,000 pounds. Together, these IDVs provide a combined ceiling value of $73,227,600 and grant the Joint Munitions Command operational flexibility to issue firm fixed-price delivery orders based on actual production requirements at the McAlester facility through 2028, underscoring Specialized Materials And Chemicals' role as the primary single-award supplier for this essential defense chemical component.
