About the company
Koenig & Bauer Banknote Solutions SA, doing business as Kba-Notasys LTD, is a Switzerland-headquartered foreign-owned manufacturer that supplies specialized banknote production equipment, spare parts, and maintenance services to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing as a sole-source prime contractor operating under full-and-open (non-set-aside) procurements. The vendor competes exclusively in the federal market without subcontracting and carries no SBA certifications.
The vendor's federal footprint is nearly monolineal: 3,436 of 3,716 awards (93% by count; 96% by value) flow through the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, with negligible activity from the Department of the Treasury centrally ($97 thousand) and the Department of Veterans Affairs ($16 thousand). Koenig & Bauer's concrete capability set centers on intaglio and offset printing presses for currency production, replacement spare parts for Legacy Engraved Plate Equipment (LEPE), Specialty Underprint Security Intaglio (SUSI), and Non-Sequential Large Examination Printing Equipment (NSLEPE), bearing race rings, hydraulic cylinders, filters, spindles, and mission-critical software support including FLOWSYS production-data systems and ASECURI security software. Recent representative awards include a $293.6 million definitive contract awarded June 6, 2025 for two Non-Sequential Large Examination Printing Equipment machines (NS-LEPE) with options for five additional units through May 2035; a $7.415 million definitive contract awarded April 11, 2025 for FLOWSYS software support and maintenance through April 2027; a $178.3 million delivery order awarded September 30, 2024 for intaglio presses under a $264.25 million single-award IDC running through September 2034; and a $52.4 million delivery order awarded January 13, 2025 for offset presses under a $100 million multiple-award IDC extending to November 2028.
The vendor holds five primary parent vehicles, all with the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. The Indefinite Delivery Contract 2031ZA21D00022 (spare parts general) has generated 152 task orders worth $3.4 million combined. Blanket Purchase Agreement 2031ZA20A00008 carries 99 task orders totaling $3 million. Blanket Purchase Agreement 2031ZA19A00020 has issued 96 task orders worth $6.3 million. IDC 2031ZA20D00003 has received 80 task orders ($1.7 million combined), and IDC 2031ZA21D00003 has 78 task orders ($3.1 million combined). Two additional single-award BPAs established in September 2026 support Computer-to-Intaglio Plate (CTIP)-III engraved metal plates ($198 thousand ceiling through September 2031) and K & B equipment training at domestic facilities ($3.366 million ceiling through September 2030). The vendor also holds a $2.1 million single-award IDC for SUSI replacement spare parts through September 2030, recently generating delivery orders including a $142.7 million order in November 2025 and a $145.8 million order in October 2025.
Activity has contracted year over year—from 241 awards in 2022 to 48 in 2026 (through mid-September)—reflecting the episodic, project-driven nature of large equipment procurements. The recompete cliff presents material exposure: 24 awards with combined potential value of $264.2 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, including the $293.6 million NS-LEPE machine contract (due May 2035, representing multi-year delivery schedules) and the $264.25 million intaglio presses IDC (due September 2034). The vendor reports $2.38 billion combined potential value across all awards in the source, with $1.09 billion already obligated (46% spend-out rate).
Koenig & Bauer maintains no identified subcontractor footprint; the vendor performs all work as a prime contractor. Work is performed predominantly in Switzerland, with occasional domestic performance in Washington, DC for software and repair services. The vendor's NAICS profile concentrates on Printing Machinery and Equipment Manufacturing (1,821 awards) and Industrial Supplies Merchant Wholesalers (324 awards), with PSC concentration in Printing, Duplicating, and Bookbinding Equipment (2,420 awards). Competitors in federal banknote production equipment are not identified across the source data, reflecting the proprietary and specialized character of Koenig & Bauer's role as the BEP's sole authorized supplier of advanced currency production infrastructure.
