Description
The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) requires two highly specialized machine spare parts – a Pawl Set (Part # 2M030742) and a Board Tracking Frame (Part # ELP1414) – for its currency‑manufacturing presses. Zeiser Inc. holds exclusive licensing rights to produce these OEM components; no other vendor can supply them without voiding equipment warranties. Because the parts are proprietary and essential to the operation of BEP’s Super Simultan Offset, Intaglio, COPE, and LEPE presses, the Treasury’s Common Services Center is seeking a sole‑source award to Zeiser Inc., a small business. The solicitation references Notices of Intent posted on SAM.gov (July 29 2026 and August 14 2026) with response deadlines of August 5 2026 and August 20 2026, respectively, but no responses were received. The justification cites urgency, exclusive licensing, and the risk of costly repairs if non‑OEM parts are used.
