About this opportunity

The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP), part of the Department of the Treasury, has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole source contract for specialized spare parts used in currency manufacturing operations. The procurement involves two specific proprietary components manufactured by Koenig & Bauer: carbide blades for IFS equipment and reflector assemblies for stack and rack carts. BEP intends to award this firm-fixed-price contract directly to Koenig & Bauer Banknote Solutions SA, located in Lausanne, Switzerland, without competitive bidding. The government is utilizing sole source justification under FAR 13.106-1(b) and FAR Subpart 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii), indicating that only one responsible source can satisfy the agency's requirements. The procurement falls under NAICS code 333248 for All Other Industrial Machinery Manufacturing.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to provide advance notification of the intended sole source award while allowing other potential contractors to demonstrate their capabilities if they believe they can provide equivalent products. Interested parties must submit capability statements via email to william.corley@bep.gov and jason.roberts@bep.gov no later than 12:00 PM Eastern Standard Time on September 26, 2025. All respondents must be registered and maintain active status in the System for Award Management (SAM) to be eligible for consideration. The government emphasizes that any costs associated with preparing and submitting responses will not be reimbursed, and that information received will be used solely to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement instead of the planned sole source award. The contract includes a 120-day delivery period following award, with parts to be delivered to the BEP's D.C. Annex Building loading dock.
