About this IDV
The U.S. Secret Service established a $50 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with Central Lake Armor Express Inc. (doing business as Armor Express), a North Carolina-based manufacturer of ballistic and protective equipment, effective from July 28, 2020 through May 29, 2026. This single-award, non-set-aside contract was issued without competition restrictions and operates under the General Services Administration's Multiple Award Schedule vehicle, enabling streamlined procurement of body armor and related protective systems on an on-demand basis. The agreement was extended from its original completion date of March 29, 2026 to May 29, 2026 at no additional cost to address manufacturer delays. Armor Express serves as the prime contractor with no documented subcontracting arrangements, performing work from multiple locations including its headquarters in Eden, North Carolina, as well as Central Lake, Michigan, and Washington, DC facilities.
The contract supports the Secret Service's acquisition of ballistic vests, body armor systems, concealment vests, Hidden Defender body armor, armor panels, and ancillary protective gear necessary for personnel protection and operational security missions. Through the BPA's period of performance, the Secret Service issued numerous task orders and call-offs with individual ceiling values ranging from approximately $9,374 to $1.32 million, collectively exercising substantial portions of the $50 million authorization. Representative procurements included ballistic vests, modular protective systems, armor carriers, and specialized concealment and tactical body armor variants. Task orders were distributed across multiple fiscal years from 2021 through 2026, with performance locations spanning Washington, DC, Eden, North Carolina, Central Lake, Michigan, and Laurel, Maryland, reflecting the geographic distribution of Secret Service operational requirements. All task orders were issued on a firm fixed-price basis without set-aside designations, enabling efficient replenishment of protective equipment inventory and rapid fulfillment of personnel protection needs across the agency's civilian law enforcement operations.
