Blanket Purchase Agreement 19QA1026A0001

This Blanket Purchase Agreement, awarded on December 12, 2025, by the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs (a civilian agency within the U.S. Department of State) to Miscellaneous Foreign Awardees, establishes a vehicle for the procurement of office supplies from Jarir Book Store. The contract carries a ceiling value of $150,000 and extends through November 12, 2028, representing a three-year performance period. The multiple-award BPA was competitively solicited without set-aside provisions, allowing open competition among qualified vendors. As a child contract under the Miscellaneous Foreign Awardees entity identifier, this agreement leverages the vendor's established presence in the System for Award Management and its demonstrated capability in supporting U.S. government operations, particularly within the Department of State's international missions.

The procurement focuses on office supplies sourced through Jarir Book Store, a commercial vendor, to support the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs' operational needs. This type of supply agreement is typical for State Department bureaus maintaining diplomatic missions and administrative operations throughout the Middle East and North Africa region. The $150,000 ceiling provides budgetary authority for recurring purchases of office materials and related supplies throughout the three-year period of performance. The BPA structure enables efficient ordering and delivery of supplies on an as-needed basis, reducing administrative burden while ensuring consistent availability of essential materials for Bureau operations and embassy support functions across the Near Eastern Affairs portfolio.
