Sole Source Justification (SSJ) for Spare Parts
Contract Opportunity Analysis
The Department of the Treasury's Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) is issuing a sole-source justification for the procurement of specialized machine spare parts from Koenig & Bauer Banknote Solutions SA (KBBS). The specific parts required are Ink Ductor Guides, which are critical for the operation of Super Simultan, Intaglio, COPE, and LEPE presses at BEP facilities. KBBS is the sole manufacturer of these proprietary parts, and utilizing aftermarket alternatives would void existing equipment warranties, making this acquisition essential for maintaining BEP's operational capabilities. Interested parties can reach out to Diane Rollins at diane.rollins@bep.gov or Naweed Nezam at Naweed.Nezam@bep.gov for further information regarding this procurement opportunity.
