Blanket Purchase Agreement

Blanket Purchase Agreements, also known as “BPAs”, are arrangements between the U.S. Government and responsible sources that allow us to order supplies or non-personal services. BPAs are useful for quick acquisition of items that cannot reasonably be anticipated in advance and are not available from a required source. BPAs are useful when we have repetitive, but unpredictable, needs in general class of supplies or services. A BPA is not a contract or purchase order. A BPA is like a charge account that sets forth terms and conditions prior to an actual purchase, significantly reducing paperwork and the administrative cost per order. Once the BPA is issued, the U.S. Government can place orders and the contractor can make delivery without a separate purchase order for each order. The exact items, quantities and delivery requirements are NOT known in advance and may vary considerably. BPA is not a binding contract. It is an account set up with a specific company.

Please note that all companies must be registered in SAM (System for Award Management) prior to award of a contract for those actions at or above $30,000 in value.

The U.S. Embassy Stockholm intends to renew/issue BPAs for the following supplies or services:

  • Periodicals and subscriptions
  • Office supplies
  • Plumbing supplies
  • Hardware supplies
  • Locksmith supplies and services
