Description

John S. Baldwin, Sr.. Since 1879, the Bureau of Engraving & Printing (BEP) has bought virtually all of the paper used to print U.S. currency from a single supplier. In response to the 1997 Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act & Congressional requests, this report addresses: (1) the optimum circumstances for the procurement of distinctive currency paper, (2) the effectiveness of BEP’s efforts to encourage competition in the procurement of currency paper, (3) the fairness & reasonableness of prices paid for currency paper by BEP & the quality of the paper purchased, & (4) the potential for disruption to the U.S. currency paper supply from BEP’s reliance on a single source.
