Intent to Award Sole Source Laminating Film

The Department of the Treasury Bureau of Engraving and Printing has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole-source contract for laminating film to Industrial Packaging Inc. This notice specifically pertains to BEP Item #ENG1520 - Laminating Film and is not a request for bids, quotes, or proposals. The Bureau has determined that it intends to proceed with a non-competitive procurement for this requirement. The notice serves as an informational announcement regarding the government's planned acquisition approach. The procurement falls under NAICS code 333248 for All Other Industrial Machinery Manufacturing and PSC code 3610 for Printing, Duplicating, And Bookbinding Equipment.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to inform the contracting community of the government's intention to sole-source this laminating film requirement while providing an opportunity for other potential vendors to demonstrate their capabilities. Interested contractors who believe they can provide the required laminating film must submit capability statements by 1:00 PM EDT on August 5, 2025. Any responses must provide clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the government, as the decision not to compete this requirement remains within the government's discretion. The point of contact for this action is Diane Rollins at diane.rollins@bep.gov, and telephone calls will not be accepted. The government may consider all capability statements received for future requirements, even though this current procurement is intended as a sole-source award.
