Project Requirements Successful offerors must have the knowledge, skill, ability, and resources including transportation, permits, materials, personnel (supervision/labor), vehicles, equipment, cylinders (with the exception of government-owned cylinders), and tanks to provide liquid and compressed gases to RML. A list of types, sizes, and estimated annual quantities is provided in Attachment A.

Offerors must be able to provide a cylinder management program and inventory; maintain remote telemetry monitoring of nitrogen tanks; and provide proof of delivery safety inspection checks. Offerors must be able to provide all necessary cylinder-contained liquid and compressed gases no later than 4:00 pm every Friday.
