Place of performance is Quantico, Virginia (primary fieldwork operations), with secondary operations at Washington, DC, Loveland, Colorado, and Camp Springs, Maryland, and nationwide reach under task-order ordering. The contract supports capacity to process up to 500,000 federal background investigations annually across various investigation types, including initial investigations, periodic reinvestigations, and continuous vetting alerts.

National Student Clearinghouse provides education verification services as a subcontractor; additional subcontractors account for approximately 12 percent of contractor hours.

The originating RFI, posted February 18, 2020, sought proposals for investigative fieldwork services across variable caseloads and locations, emphasizing capabilities in continuous vetting approaches. NAICS code 561611 (Investigation and Personal Background Check Services) applies.
