MKS Finance SA / Pamp SA is a global leader in the precious metals industry, operating through its subsidiary Manfra, Tordella & Brookes, LLC (MTB). The company provides critical materials to the United States federal government, primarily supplying precious metal blanks for coin production to the Department of the Treasury's United States Mint. MKS Finance SA / Pamp SA's expertise lies in the manufacturing and delivery of high-quality precious metal products, including gold, platinum, and palladium blanks, which are essential for the Mint's commemorative and bullion coin programs.

Recent federal contract awards to MKS Finance SA / Pamp SA, through its subsidiary MTB, demonstrate the company's significant role in supporting the U.S. Mint's operations. In September 2021, MTB was awarded a $1.4 million delivery order contract for one-ounce platinum blanks, with delivery to the Mint's New York facility. Earlier in July 2021, the company received a $420,739.64 contract for similar platinum blanks, involving manufacturing in Switzerland and deliveries to locations in Switzerland, New York, and Washington, D.C. Additionally, in May 2021, MTB was awarded a $319,406.75 contract for palladium blanks. These contracts are part of a larger $10 billion single-award indefinite delivery contract between the Mint and MTB for the purchase of gold bullion bars, serving as a basic ordering agreement to ensure a reliable supply of precious metals for the Mint's various programs. Notably, none of these recent awards utilized set-aside designations, indicating that MKS Finance SA / Pamp SA competes for these contracts in the open market.
