Purchase Order 47QSWA26P0EB6

Rite-Kem, Inc., headquartered in Tupelo, Mississippi, was awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $2,079.00 by the Federal Acquisition Service (FAS), the civilian procurement arm of the General Services Administration, for the supply of mixed-color cotton and cotton-synthetic wiping rags. The contract, awarded February 6, 2026, with an ultimate completion date of February 26, 2026, specifies rags weighing 3.0 to 10.0 ounces per yard designed for wiping water, oil, and grease from machinery and miscellaneous cleaning applications. The unit of issue is a fifty-pound bale, with plastic packaging and packing materials prohibited. This award was issued under full and open competition with no set-aside designation.

This purchase order represents a call against Rite-Kem's existing Blanket Purchase Agreement with FAS, valued at $249,999 and effective through June 30, 2026, with a potential one-year extension. The BPA operates under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule program and the JANSAN (Janitorial, Sanitation, and Foodservice Supplies Integration) FSSI, enabling federal agencies to efficiently procure from Rite-Kem's comprehensive inventory of janitorial, sanitation, specialty chemical, safety equipment, and industrial products. Rite-Kem, an established federal contractor since 2001, serves as the prime contractor with no subcontractor relationships documented in the award history.
