About this award

This delivery order, awarded November 22, 2022, to Sicpa Securink Corp for OPE test inks, represents a $158,368.60 firm fixed-price award from the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP). The contract, with an ultimate completion date of January 9, 2023, was issued without set-aside designation to the sole qualified provider of specialized security printing inks critical to U.S. currency production. Sicpa Securink Corp, a foreign-owned manufacturer headquartered in Springfield, Virginia, is the exclusive supplier of advanced security inks to the BEP, including intaglio inks, optically variable inks, infrared-opaque and infrared-transparent inks, and color-shifting magnetic inks essential for anti-counterfeiting measures on Federal Reserve notes. Work is to be performed at the company's Springfield, Virginia facility.

This delivery order was issued under one of Sicpa Securink's four indefinite delivery contracts with the BEP, with the largest IDC valued at $591.83 million through July 2027 for currency and security inks. The BEP has consistently relied on these single-award IDCs to procure specialized security materials and research and development services, with delivery orders ranging from minimal quantities to over $2.8 million for major currency ink production. The sole-source awards reflect Sicpa Securink's unique proprietary technology and manufacturing capabilities as the only known source capable of meeting the BEP's technical requirements for these highly specialized security printing materials.
