Basic Ordering Agreement 15A00026GAQA00103

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives executed a Basic Ordering Agreement with BSJ Contract Investigation And Consulting, L.L.C. on August 1, 2026. This BOA establishes a framework for ordering field and background-investigative services nationwide; it obligates no funds itself but authorizes the agency to issue orders up to a ceiling of $600,000 during the performance period.

The agreement covers investigation and personal background check services (NAICS 561611) conducted by special investigators performing background investigations across the United States. The BOA operates under a 60-month performance period running through July 31, 2031. Contractor location must be within 200 miles of specified priority cities, and the awardee must have obtained a favorably-adjudicated Tier-5 background investigation and maintained SAM registration.

The originating solicitation, posted June 11, 2025, was a total small business set-aside issued as a combined synopsis and solicitation for multiple BOAs. ATF designated the vehicle to remain continuously available for contractor selection through June 30, 2030, with evaluation based on past performance, qualifications and experience, capabilities, acceptability, location, and price. The agreement uses firm-fixed pricing at pre-determined ATF rates.
