Statement of Work

Super Orlof Intaglio Press Wiper Tank(s) Replacement

1. SECTION I: Background

The objective of this project is to enhance the existing Wiper Tank(s) by retrofitting to the Super Orlof Intaglio (SOI) press. This upgrade is intended to meet operational, safety, and quality standards, as well as currency production requirements. The focus will be on retrofitting the current SOI 1 Press with the aim of reducing downtime on the press, decreasing parts and chemical consumption, and extending the lifetime of the wiper rollers.

Initially, the upgrade will be applied to SOI 1 located at Washington DC facility (DCF). If successful after initial use period, there will be an option to retrofit the remaining three (3) presses. One (1) system is located at DCF and two (2) systems at WCF. The upgrade will help ensure and sustain quality performance and operations at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing

(BEP).

2. SECTION II: Purpose

2.1. Product, Service or Outcome Needed: The BEP requires replacements for the existing SOI 1 wiper tank(s) and the option for three additional tanks.
