The award, valued at $1,197.00, requires delivery of highly absorbent general-use wipers packaged as two five-pound bags per box unit. The contract specifies that a first article inspection is required in accordance with applicable military specifications prior to full-scale delivery. The place of performance is Martinsville, Virginia, with an ultimate completion date of March 25, 2026. This task order was issued without a set-aside designation, indicating open competitive procurement. The award is structured as a call against Barnes Supply Co's broader Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Federal Acquisition Service, an "Other Than Schedule" indefinite delivery vehicle valued at $5.5 million and effective through September 28, 2026.
