This contract award represents a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call issued by the Federal Acquisition Service (FAS), a civilian federal agency, to Barnes Supply Co, Inc., a specialized manufacturer of military-specification cleaning cloths based in Martinsville, Virginia. The award, dated April 17, 2026, calls for the delivery of Type II low-lint, highly absorbent cleaning cloths conforming to military specification CID A-A-59323A, with a ceiling value of $1,915.20. The cloths are packaged in boxes containing two five-pound bags per unit of issue and are available for direct delivery to both military and civilian federal customers. This task order call was issued without set-aside designation under Barnes Supply Co's larger single-award BPA valued at $5.5 million, which remains effective through September 28, 2026. The award includes a first article inspection requirement in accordance with paragraph 3.6 of the specification to ensure product compliance prior to full delivery.

Barnes Supply Co, Inc. serves as the sole awardee and prime contractor on this call, with the ultimate completion date set for May 2, 2026, and pricing structured as firm fixed price. The company has maintained continuous federal contractor status since its SAM.gov registration in December 2003 and specializes exclusively in manufacturing two types of precision-engineered cleaning cloths—Type I ultra-clean wipers for clean room environments and Type II general-use cloths for broader applications. The "Other Than Schedule" BPA structure allows the FAS to streamline procurement of these essential cleaning materials across the federal government without requiring repeated competitive processes, enabling multiple federal agencies to place task orders as operational needs arise.
