About this opportunity

The Department of the Treasury's Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) has issued a Special Notice regarding a Sole Source Justification and Approval (SSJ) for BEP Part #2EG01287, which consists of specialized plates for currency tip manufacturing equipment. This notice pertains to mechanical spare parts required for the bureau's currency manufacturing operations at the Eastern Currency Facility. The procurement is being sourced exclusively from Koenig & Bauer Banknote Solutions SA (KBBS), a foreign-owned large business entity. The justification falls under NAICS code 333248 for All Other Industrial Machinery Manufacturing and PSC category 3610 for Printing, Duplicating, and Bookbinding Equipment. The notice was posted on September 24, 2025, with responses due by October 8, 2025.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to provide transparency regarding BEP's decision to proceed with sole source procurement due to the highly specialized and proprietary nature of the required equipment parts. KBBS maintains exclusive rights to produce these specific spare parts for BEP's specialized currency printing equipment, including Super Simultan (Offset) presses, Intaglio (I-10 and Super Orlof) presses, and COPE presses. A Notice of Intent was previously posted on SAM.gov from September 2-8, 2025, seeking industry responses to determine if competitive procurement was feasible, but no responses were received. The BEP has determined that competitive procurement is unlikely to be possible for these proprietary items given the unique specifications and exclusive manufacturing arrangements. Contractors interested in this procurement opportunity must meet the technical requirements for manufacturing these highly specialized currency production components.
