Delivery Order #47QSWA27F01PS

Sole-Source Delivery Order for Federal Bed Sheets by Federal Prison Industries

This award is a recently issued delivery order contract under a long-term, sole-source indefinite delivery requirements contract specifically for the production of federal bed linens. The recipient, Federal Prison Industries, Inc. (FPI), a government-owned corporation, specializes in manufacturing bed sheets and related products within correctional facilities, employing incarcerated individuals as part of rehabilitation and job training efforts. The contract procures polyester/cotton blend bed sheets that meet federal standards, addressing ongoing operational needs of federal agencies for essential bedding supplies. Its significance lies in ensuring a reliable supply chain for federal bedding products while supporting inmate employment programs. The scope of work includes the production and delivery of these bed sheets from FPI's facility in Terre Haute, Indiana, over a scheduled performance period of about one month. The contract is awarded on a sole-source basis due to FPI's unique mandate and expertise, continuing a long-standing partnership under the broader contract vehicle GS07FAA559, which prohibits subcontracting and requires direct production by FPI. This multi-year framework highlights the federal government's strategic integration of social impact goals within its procurement processes.
