About this award

The U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) awarded a delivery order valued at $999,000 to Crane & Co., Inc.'s Crane Currency division on November 17, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of January 29, 2026. This firm fixed-price contract, designated as the "ECF January 2026 NXG Thread Order," does not utilize a set-aside designation and reflects Crane Currency's sole-source status as the primary supplier of specialized security materials for U.S. currency production. The work will be performed in Dalton, Massachusetts, where Crane Currency maintains manufacturing facilities for advanced security features and currency substrate materials.

This delivery order falls under one of Crane Currency's two significant indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts with the BEP—specifically the $270 million optical variable window security threads contract established in 2021. The order supports the BEP's ongoing currency manufacturing and next-generation currency design initiatives by providing specialized thread materials essential for Federal Reserve note production and counterfeit deterrence. As a critical long-term partner, Crane Currency continues to deliver the technologically advanced and secure materials necessary to maintain the integrity of U.S. currency production.
