About this IDV
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives executed a Basic Ordering Agreement with Scott Balfour on August 1, 2026, to establish a framework for field background investigative services. The BOA does not obligate funds itself; rather, it sets pricing and delivery terms under which ATF may issue future orders through July 31, 2031.
The agreement covers background investigation and personnel security screening services nationwide. Scott Balfour must be located within 200 miles of ATF's specified priority cities and hold a favorably adjudicated Tier-5 background investigation. The BOA carries a ceiling value of $600,000 and operates under NAICS code 561611 (Investigation and Personal Background Check Services). The 60-month performance period extends from award through July 2031.
The originating solicitation, posted June 11, 2025, was designated a 100% small business set-aside under the $25 million size standard for the NAICS code and contemplated multiple BOA awards to qualified offerors. ATF structured the procurement to evaluate proposals on past performance, qualifications and experience, capabilities, acceptability, location, and price, with firm-fixed pricing at pre-determined point payment rates. Successful contractors must complete ATF training remotely, maintain confidentiality standards, demonstrate willingness to travel up to 200 miles for assignments, and possess federal investigative experience or specialized investigative backgrounds.
