CIM USA Inc.

CIM USA Inc., a for-profit small business manufacturer based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, supplies embossing machines, dog tag manufacturing equipment, card personalization systems, and metal plate marking devices to the federal government exclusively as a prime contractor through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) vehicle, with no subcontract footprint.

CIM USA's federal work centers on industrial marking and identification equipment—concrete deliverables include embossing machines for military dog tags and personnel identification systems, portable dog tag embossers (ME550 and ME1000S models), metal tag marking equipment, card imaging systems, and specialized equipment for Armed Forces ID tag production. Representative named work includes a $204.6 million five-year ceiling purchase order from the Air Force Materiel Command (Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex) for up to ten tabletop metal tag embossing machines with installation and warranty; a $144.5 million purchase order from the Department of the Army for dog tag machines under UNISON BUY #1130119; a $99.9 million purchase order from the Army (Fort Drum) for an Automatic Metal Dog Tag Embossing Machine under Total Small Business set-aside; and a $90.5 million delivery order from Air Education and Training Command for ME550 dog tag embossers under GSA MAS with Total Small Business designation. Smaller recurring orders include $3.5 thousand to $25.4 thousand delivery orders from GSA Federal Acquisition Service for embossing machine assemblies, dog tag machines, and related components.

Customer concentration is moderate but skewed toward GSA civilian procurement. The top five agencies account for 55 percent of recent awards by count: GSA Federal Acquisition Service leads with 311 awards and $8.7 million combined potential value, followed by the United States Marine Corps (151 awards, $854 thousand), the Department of the Army (140 awards, $1.6 million), the Department of the Air Force (47 awards, $436 thousand), and the Department of the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (39 awards, $258 thousand). By dollars, GSA dominates ($8.7 million), followed by the Army ($1.6 million) and Marine Corps ($854 thousand). The dollar rankings and award-count rankings diverge noticeably—GSA places far more individual small delivery orders while the Army concentrates its spending in fewer, larger purchases. Recent activity shows 1,249 total prime awards with combined potential value of $20.8 million and $16.7 million obligated; award volume has remained flat to declining across the past four years (54 in 2022, 64 in 2023, 64 in 2024, 44 in 2025, 13 in 2026 year-to-date).

CIM USA accesses federal customers almost entirely through two GSA MAS vehicles: Federal Supply Schedule GS25F0043L, carrying 812 task orders and $9.1 million in combined potential value, and the broader Multiple Award Schedule, with 319 task orders and $3.5 million. These are the vendor's only named parent vehicles; the company does not hold seat on GWACs, agency-wide IDIQs, or BPAs beyond GSA's government-wide MAS programs. All awards are firm-fixed-price delivery orders or purchase orders issued without set-aside designation, indicating CIM USA competes full-and-open against other qualified vendors on GSA Schedule pricing rather than under 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic set-asides, despite SBA classification as a small business. The company does not subcontract; 100 percent of awards are prime contracts, with no sub-award footprint in the source data.

CIM USA's portfolio is dominated by industrial marking machinery (NAICS 333411 and related codes), with office furniture and commercial printing equipment classification also present across award records. Primary PSC categories are Printing, Duplicating, and Bookbinding Equipment (310 awards), Visible Record Equipment (253 awards), Miscellaneous Office Machines (227 awards), and Industrial Marking Machines (96 awards). The company has maintained continuous federal contracting presence since 2001 and holds established GSA MAS registration. Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $137 thousand—relatively modest recompete exposure. Operating footprint centers on Doral, Miami, and Oakland Park, Florida, with occasional out-of-state performance at military installations. The vendor operates as a straightforward equipment manufacturer and prime supplier with no known teaming, joint venture, or subcontractor relationships in federal work.
