The specific item awarded is a refillable, black ink pen measuring 5.25 inches in overall length and weighing 0.06 pounds, manufactured in accordance with the J.L. Darling Corporation specification or an equal alternative. The contract was awarded on July 31, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of August 11, 2025, and carries a ceiling value of $13,937.00. The award was processed as a Blanket Purchase Agreement call under the Multiple Award Schedule contract vehicle, with no set-aside designation, indicating open competition in the federal marketplace.
