The Federal Emergency Management Agency awarded a definitive contract to Strategic Security Corp, a woman-owned small business, on June 6, 2026, to exercise option 1001 for Level II armed security guards at multiple FEMA locations within North Carolina, with a ceiling value of $1.89 million and ultimate completion date of June 5, 2027.
This modification realigns funding and deploys armed protective security officers to disaster-related sites and facilities throughout North Carolina in accordance with the performance work statement. Place of performance is Durham, NC. The originating solicitation, posted January 15, 2026, sought 25 armed protective security officers meeting Department of Labor Guard II classification, requiring U.S. citizenship, state security officer certification, active federal and state firearms permits, CPR/First Aid/AED certification, current firearms training and qualification, and a minimum of two years of security or military experience. The contract structure comprises a three-month base period with three additional three-month option periods and a potential six-month extension. Strategic Security Corp is designated woman-owned small business (WOSB) and economically disadvantaged woman-owned small business (EDWOSB). The originating solicitation was set aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, though this award to Strategic Security Corp represents a re-competition of the incumbent contract previously held by that vendor. Labor hours pricing applies.
