Blanket Purchase Agreement GS10F227BA-50310223A0009

The Securities and Exchange Commission awarded a $6.0 million Blanket Purchase Agreement to Tier TECH International, Inc., a veteran-owned and service-disabled veteran-owned small business headquartered in Delray Beach, Florida, for barrier analysis support services. The contract, awarded September 15, 2023, with an ultimate completion date of September 14, 2028, operates under the General Services Administration's Multiple Award Schedule professional services vehicle, specifically within the Management and Financial Consulting category. The scope encompasses barrier analysis support services, acquisition and grants management support, and business program services designed to address infrastructure security and asset protection assessments. As a single award Blanket Purchase Agreement with no small business set-aside applied, the contract establishes a vehicle through which the SEC can issue task orders on an indefinite quantity basis, enabling the agency to obtain specialized security analysis and consulting support as requirements emerge throughout the performance period.

Two task orders executed under this Blanket Purchase Agreement demonstrate the contract's utilization for specific barrier analysis requirements. The first task order, valued at $1,000,366.53 and awarded September 25, 2023, was completed October 15, 2024, while a subsequent task order valued at $137,497.82 was awarded October 16, 2024, with completion scheduled for October 15, 2025, and included a partial termination for convenience that descoped data extraction and data assurance activities. Both task orders utilize time-and-materials pricing and are performed at Tier TECH International's Delray Beach, Florida facility. Given Tier TECH's documented expertise in counterterrorism, infrastructure security, and critical facility protection derived from prior work with the Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and other federal entities, the barrier analysis support services likely involve physical security assessments, threat vulnerability evaluations, and related consulting to enhance the SEC's facility and operational security posture.
