This BPA call order, valued at $2,344.68, was awarded on September 1, 2024, to Mill Wiping Rags, Inc., a specialized manufacturer of cotton and cotton-synthetic wiping rags based in Bronx, New York. The contract covers the supply of white wiping rags weighing 2.0 to 7.0 ounces per square yard, packaged in 50-pound bales without plastic packaging, for use in removing water, oil, and grease from machinery and miscellaneous cleaning applications. The award was made by the Federal Acquisition Service (FAS), the civilian agency within the General Services Administration responsible for federal procurement, with no set-aside designation applied, indicating full and open competition. This call order is issued under Mill Wiping Rags' master Blanket Purchase Agreement, a single-award indefinite delivery vehicle valued at $5.5 million and awarded on the Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) program, which authorizes the company to provide these specialized cleaning materials to federal agencies through both the Blanket Purchase Agreement Service (BPAS) and Special Ordering Service (SQS) programs.

The contract structure enables direct delivery to both military and civilian customers outside standard FAS channels, reflecting the General Services Administration's strategy of leveraging GSA schedule contracts to streamline procurement and reduce administrative burden for federal agencies with recurring needs for commodity items. Mill Wiping Rags, registered as a federal contractor since April 2000, has demonstrated consistent capacity to fulfill federal agency demand for industrial wiping rags, with the master BPA contract extending through November 9, 2026. The pricing structure employs fixed-price with economic price adjustment provisions, ensuring cost stability while allowing for adjustments in material costs. Work is to be performed at the contractor's facility in Bronx, New York, with an ultimate completion date of September 9, 2024.
