About this opportunity

The Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, has awarded a sole-source contract to New York Marking Devices Corp. for secure stamps on August 12, 2026, under contract 70SBUR26P00000014, with an estimated total value of $802,775.

The justification cites FAR 6.303-1, only one responsible source, based on NYMD's proprietary security features and exclusive control over design files and production templates. The stamps—9,000 numbered "Approved" stamps, 9,000 numbered "Denied" stamps, 250 Asylum Grant stamps, and 2,000 Temporary I-551 stamps—incorporate tamper-evident ink formulas, micro-engraving techniques, embedded microtext, UV-reactive ink, and custom holographic seals validated by DHS Security Assessment teams. NYMD's facility holds DHS-approved security certification for handling Controlled Unclassified Information, Law Enforcement Sensitive, and For Official Use Only documents. Market research conducted in April 2026 identified no alternative vendors capable of meeting all technical specifications and security requirements. The contractor maintains a six-year established relationship with USCIS and unique chain-of-custody tracking with individual serial numbering for each stamp. Delivery is required within 90 days of contract award. Pricing was determined fair and reasonable based on historical prices under existing USCIS contract HSSCCG-15-F-00597.
