Product Service Code (PSC) 7340 covers cutlery and flatware, specifically encompassing various types of stainless steel dining utensils such as table knives, forks, spoons, dessert utensils, and tea spoons. These products are primarily designed for institutional use across military and civilian federal meal programs. The category includes graded, utility-style utensils with specific patterns and manufacturing specifications.

The federal contract awards within this PSC category are predominantly issued by the General Services Administration's (GSA) Federal Acquisition Service through Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call orders under the Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) program. Sherrill Manufacturing, Inc. emerges as the primary contractor, holding a significant BPA valued up to $1,000,000 for supplying American-made stainless steel flatware. Contract values range from less than $100 to over $12,000, with typical completion dates within 30-45 days of award. These awards are consistently not set aside, indicating open competition, and support meal programs across both military and civilian federal institutions.

The sole federal contract opportunity in this dataset is a Request for Quote (RFQ) from the Tennessee Army National Guard for promotional product knives. This solicitation seeks 1,400 knives in three different styles, with specific requirements including blade length, locking mechanisms, and custom laser engraving. The opportunity is set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 332215 (Metal Kitchen Cookware, Utensil, Cutlery, and Flatware Manufacturing), with quotes due by September 9, 2024. The evaluation will prioritize technical characteristics and salient specifications over pricing.
