Purchase Order 47QSWA26P08CY

The General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service awarded a $1,677.20 firm fixed-price purchase order to Traffic & Parking Control Co., LLC (doing business as Tapco) on December 25, 2025, for the procurement of non-adhesive reflective fabric tape designed for sew-on application to garments to enhance nighttime visibility. The specific product is silver reflective tape, 2 inches wide, with a unit of issue of 100-yard rolls. The contract represents a straightforward product procurement with an ultimate completion date of January 1, 2026, and carries no small business set-aside designation, having been awarded through full and open competition.

Tapco, a Wisconsin-based manufacturer of traffic safety equipment and signage, is well-positioned to fulfill this requirement given its extensive history supplying reflective materials and safety products to federal agencies. The company maintains a significant $7 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Department of Transportation's Pipeline and Hazardous Material Safety Administration through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, which runs through March 31, 2029, and is designed to support Bipartisan Infrastructure Law grant projects. This purchase order aligns with Tapco's core business of manufacturing high-visibility and regulatory safety products for federal, state, and civilian agencies, building on its established relationships with multiple government sectors including the Department of Agriculture, Department of Homeland Security, and Department of the Interior.
