Purchase Order 47QSWA26P0FBW

The Federal Acquisition Service awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $5,184 to Rite-Kem, Inc. on February 20, 2026, for the supply of cotton and cotton-synthetic wiping rags. The specification calls for mixed-color rags weighing 3.0 to 10.0 ounces per square yard, suitable for wiping water, oil, and grease from machinery and miscellaneous cleaning applications. The rags will be delivered in fifty-pound bales without plastic packaging materials, with ultimate completion scheduled for March 12, 2026. The work will be performed in Tupelo, Mississippi, where the contractor is headquartered. This award carries no set-aside designation, indicating the procurement was competed on a full and open basis.

This purchase order is issued as a call against Rite-Kem's single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Federal Acquisition Service, valued at $249,999 and effective through June 30, 2026, with a one-year extension option. The BPA operates under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule program and the Janitorial, Sanitation, and Foodservice Supplies Integration initiative, authorizing federal agencies across both military and civilian sectors to procure janitorial supplies, sanitation products, specialty chemicals, and industrial consumables directly from the contractor's extensive product catalog. Rite-Kem, a Subchapter S corporation with over two decades of federal contracting experience, serves as the prime contractor with no documented subcontractor involvement for this award.
