About this award

Crane & Co., Inc., operating through its Crane Currency division, received a delivery order valued at $1.2M from the Bureau of Engraving and Printing for Next Generation currency thread materials, with completion targeted for May 28, 2026. This order was awarded on March 10, 2026, under a firm fixed-price contract with no set-aside designation, reflecting Crane Currency's sole-source status as the exclusive supplier of specialized currency production materials to the federal government. The work will be performed in Boston, Massachusetts, with Crane & Co. serving as the prime contractor with no subcontractors involved.

This delivery order is issued against one of two existing indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contracts that Crane Currency holds with the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, including a primary $1.68B IDIQ vehicle established in February 2021 that covers distinctive currency paper, non-distinctive banknote materials, and security components. The bureau utilizes these contract vehicles to procure currency production materials on an as-needed basis to support Federal Reserve note manufacturing at its Eastern and Western Currency Facilities, as well as to fund counterfeit deterrence research and next-generation currency design initiatives. Crane Currency's technical capabilities in advanced security thread development, including optical variable window technology, position it as a critical infrastructure partner for the Treasury Department's currency production mission.
