About this award

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) awarded a $53.5K delivery order to Crane & Co., Inc.'s Crane Currency division on November 6, 2025, for Ordering Period 6, Tier 1 paper materials related to NextGen $5 currency production. This firm fixed-price delivery order, which has an ultimate completion date of December 1, 2025, calls for the supply of distinctive currency paper and related security materials essential for the production of the next-generation five-dollar Federal Reserve note. The contract was not issued under any set-aside designation, reflecting Crane Currency's unique technical capabilities and sole-source status as the primary supplier of specialized currency substrates and security materials to the federal government.

Crane Currency, headquartered in Dalton, Massachusetts, operates under two significant IDIQ contracts with the BEP: a $1.683 billion vehicle awarded in February 2021 covering distinctive and non-distinctive currency paper along with specialized security materials, and a $270 million contract focusing on optical variable window security threads. These underlying agreements enable the BEP to issue task orders as needed to support ongoing currency manufacturing and next-generation currency design initiatives. As a subsidiary of Crane Co. and the sole supplier of paper and security materials for U.S. currency production, Crane Currency represents a critical long-term partner in maintaining the security and technological advancement of the nation's currency.
