About this opportunity

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) is seeking sources for high-purity chromium targets used in plate-making through physical vapor deposition plating processes. This pre-solicitation notice outlines an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for procuring specialized chromium targets with precise specifications, including 99.95% minimum purity and specific dimensions of 16x131x402mm. Potential vendors must submit detailed capability statements including company information, Unique Entity Identifier (UEI), CAGE code, manufacturing location, minimum order quantity, and procurement lead time. The opportunity falls under NAICS code 332999 with a size standard of 750 employees. Interested suppliers must submit their responses by January 6, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. EDT, with questions to be directed to specific BEP contacts.

The contract is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, indicating that only small businesses are eligible to compete for this opportunity. BEP plans to procure 36 chromium targets for each of their facilities (DCF and WCF) during the first ordering period, with four additional ordering periods requiring the same quantity. The targets will be used for multiple critical functions, including forming protective oxide layers, enabling consistent thin film deposition, providing high-resolution sputter coating, and protecting engine components against wear. While specific award values are not explicitly stated, the multi-period contract structure suggests a potentially significant procurement opportunity for qualified small business manufacturers specializing in high-precision metal fabrication. The procurement strategy indicates a long-term commitment to maintaining a consistent supply of specialized chromium targets for the Bureau's plate-making processes.
