Basic Ordering Agreement 15A00026GAQA00115

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives established a Basic Ordering Agreement with Seltzer LLC on August 1, 2026, to provide field and background-investigative services. This BOA sets framework pricing and terms for future orders; it obligates no funds itself and establishes a $600,000 ceiling under which individual orders may be placed through July 31, 2031.

The agreement covers field investigative services and background investigations for personnel security vetting nationwide. Orders under this BOA are issued on a firm-fixed-price basis with pre-determined point payment rates established during solicitation. Seltzer LLC, a New Jersey-based sole proprietorship, must maintain the capability to conduct investigations within 200 miles of specified priority cities and hold a favorably-adjudicated Tier-5 background investigation.

The originating solicitation, posted June 11, 2025, was a total small business set-aside under NAICS 561611 (Investigation and Personal Background Check Services) with a 60-month performance window. ATF sought multiple BOA awardees to support ongoing nationwide background investigation requirements, with successful contractors required to complete ATF training courses remotely, maintain strict confidentiality standards, and demonstrate willingness to travel for assignments. The solicitation remained open through June 30, 2030, to allow continuous contractor selection and qualification as needs evolved.
