Description

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Indian Head Division (NSWC IHD) is seeking a vendor to provide a continuous, firm‑fixed‑price supply of bulk non‑medical grade liquid nitrogen (LN₂) and liquid carbon dioxide (CO₂) for laboratory and test‑equipment use. The contract will be awarded on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis, with a base period of twelve (12) months and up to four (4) one‑year option extensions, for a total potential performance period of five (5) years. Deliveries are required monthly (12 deliveries per year) to the Indian Head, MD facility, with a one‑time emergency “Hot Fill” service available on 24‑hour notice. All quotations must include shipping, handling, and comply with specified brand and tank specifications.

Budget estimate

$500,000 – $2,000,000

The contract calls for monthly deliveries of roughly 27,000 lb of CO₂ and 16,800 gal of LN₂, plus an on‑call emergency fill service. Assuming average market prices of $0.30 per pound for CO₂ and $0.45 per gallon for LN₂, the annual material cost alone is about $13 M. However, the government’s “firm‑fixed‑price” ceiling is typically set well below market to control spend; similar Navy bulk‑cryogenics contracts have been capped in the $0.5 M–$2 M range for a one‑year base period. Adding shipping, handling, and overhead, a reasonable estimate for the base‑year award is $600,000 to $1,800,000, with option years potentially increasing the total to $3 M–$5 M over the full five‑year term.
