Purchase Order 47QSWA26P0602

The General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service awarded a $3,969.70 firm fixed-price purchase order to Kaufman Company, Inc., a Norwood, Massachusetts-based industrial distributor, for aircraft cleaning pads manufactured in accordance with 3M Drawing 78-8133-8797-0 Revision B. The pads, measuring 12 inches long by 6 inches wide, were procured as a sole source item with a completion deadline of December 25, 2025. This award was not issued under a small business or other set-aside program and represents a straightforward acquisition of specialized maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) supplies through full and open competition.

This purchase order was issued under Kaufman Company's existing $500 million, five-year Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contract with the GSA Federal Acquisition Service, which runs through July 26, 2026. The MAS vehicle enables federal agencies to streamline procurement of industrial tools, supplies, and equipment through delivery orders rather than individual full and open competitions. Kaufman Company has maintained its status as an active federal contractor since 2002 and leverages its Norwood warehouse as a distribution point for government customers across various agencies, including the Department of the Navy.
