The General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service awarded a $1,799.45 firm fixed-price purchase order to Tapesouth Inc., a woman-owned specialty tape manufacturer and distributor based in Gainesville, Florida, on March 3, 2026. The contract calls for delivery of pressure-sensitive adhesive tape with plastic backing in black and clear colors, measuring 1,296 inches by 2.000 inches, conforming to 3M part number 481 specifications with moisture and oil-resistant properties. The place of performance is Gainesville, Florida, with an ultimate completion date of March 18, 2026. No set-aside designation was used for this award, indicating open market competition.

This purchase order was issued under Tapesouth Inc.'s existing Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Federal Acquisition Service, a three million dollar vehicle established in May 2025 and designated for direct delivery to both military and civilian federal customers. Tapesouth specializes in providing an extensive range of tape products meeting ASTM standards and military requirements, including pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes, electrical insulation tapes, packaging tapes, and masking tapes. The company's established federal contracting presence since 2001 and recent pattern of task order awards demonstrate active utilization of this BPA to support federal agencies' diverse adhesive tape requirements across multiple civilian applications.
