The General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service awarded a task order call valued at $1,196.43 to Barnes Supply Co, Inc. for the supply of Type I ultra-clean, low-lint cleaning cloths conforming to military specification CID A-A-5932A. These cloths are specifically engineered for clean room environments requiring minimal lint contamination and are packaged in boxes containing two five-pound bags per unit. The award, effective through March 31, 2026, was issued on a firm fixed-price basis without set-aside designation, indicating open competitive procurement. First article testing is required in accordance with the military specification to ensure product compliance prior to full delivery. The products are available for direct delivery to both military and civilian federal customers outside the standard GSA Schedule system.

This task order call is issued against a larger Blanket Purchase Agreement between Barnes Supply Co, Inc. and the Federal Acquisition Service valued at $5.5 million and effective through September 28, 2026. The contractor, a for-profit manufacturer based in Martinsville, Virginia, specializes exclusively in the production of military-specification cleaning cloths and has maintained continuous federal contractor status since December 2003. The BPA vehicle is classified as an "Other Than Schedule" indefinite delivery mechanism, enabling federal agencies to streamline procurement of the company's specialized cleaning products without requiring repeated full and open competitive processes. The contractor supplies two primary product lines—Type I ultra-clean wipers and Type II general-use absorbent cloths—both meeting exacting federal specifications and designed for sensitive operational environments across government agencies.
