Miele & CIE KG

Miele & CIE KG, a German-based manufacturer of premium home and commercial appliances, has established a significant presence in the U.S. federal contracting landscape through its subsidiary, Miele Inc. The company specializes in providing high-quality laboratory equipment, particularly glassware washers and related services, to various government agencies. Miele's expertise in commercial-grade appliances has positioned it as a trusted supplier for specialized laboratory needs, supporting critical operations in federal facilities.

The majority of Miele's federal contract awards have been with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), a component of the Department of Justice. These awards primarily involve the supply, maintenance, and repair of laboratory glassware washers in Princeton, New Jersey. Specific services include preventative maintenance, repairs, and the provision of replacement parts such as microfilters. Miele has also supplied laboratory equipment to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and provided industrial washers and dryers to the Secret Service. Additionally, the company has performed maintenance on lab glass washers for the Veterans Integrated Service Network. The contract values range from approximately $1,000 to $26,000, with most awards being firm fixed price purchase orders. Notably, none of the contracts were designated as set-asides, indicating that Miele competes in the open market for these specialized services.
