This federal contract award is for the procurement of a specific industrial label item to be used on a 10-ton jack unit. The contract was awarded to Kaufman Company, Inc. (doing business as Kaufman Co Inc.), a for-profit industrial distributor based in Norwood, Massachusetts, that specializes in providing a wide range of maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) supplies to the federal government.

The contract, valued at $6,985.00, is a firm-fixed-price purchase order awarded by the General Services Administration (GSA) Federal Acquisition Service, a civilian agency. Kaufman Company holds a larger Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) contract with the GSA Federal Acquisition Service in the form of a Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contract, valued at up to $500 million, which allows federal agencies to issue delivery orders for industrial tools, supplies, and equipment through a streamlined procurement process. This MAS contract has facilitated numerous task orders for diverse industrial products, demonstrating Kaufman's capacity to meet the ongoing maintenance and operational needs of federal facilities across the United States.

The contract does not have a set-aside designation, indicating that Kaufman Company competed in full and open competition for this federal business. Kaufman Company has also acted as a subcontractor, providing industrial supplies to prime contractors such as Electric Boat Corporation for naval projects.
