About this file

This document is Amendment 5 to Solicitation 70B03C26R00000030, issued by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Border Enforcement Contracting Division on March 27, 2026.

The solicitation seeks a single award of an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for the CBP Non-Intrusive Inspection (NII) Medium Energy Mobile System (MEMS), with a maximum contract value of $270,000,000 over a 60-month ordering period. The minimum guarantee is one system, and a delivery order will be awarded concurrently with contract award. Pricing shall be Firm Fixed Price (FFP) for each delivery order, with FOB Destination terms and a mandatory five-year warranty per system. Schedule pricing must cover delivery anywhere in the contiguous United States; additional charges may apply for out-of-continental-U.S. deliveries. The schedule includes pricing for the primary system plus optional components such as training development, operator training, shipping for overseas locations, weatherproofing, cold weather packages, and on-demand services. Amendment 5 updates references from the CBP Sweeper Interface Control Document v1.1.1 to the LSX ICD Version 1.0.0, revises a data item description to specify five-year failure-free warranties, removes certain deliverable recipients (USSS and USCIS), adds FAR clauses 52.225-5 (Trade Agreements) and 52.227-14 (Rights in Data), updates evaluation criteria reference standards from ASTM F792-08 to ANSI N42.46-2008, and relocates lifecycle support evaluation criteria. Proposals are due by 2:00 PM ET on April 10, 2026, submitted electronically in three separate volumes addressing technical approach, management approach, past performance, and pricing. Questions must be submitted by March 23, 2026. Evaluation emphasizes technical capability, management effectiveness, and past performance over price, with award to the responsible offeror providing best value.

SECTION I SCHEDULES

Any applicable updates to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) made pursuant to the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) and subsequently adopted by the Department of Homeland Security via Class Deviation, shall be deemed adopted and included in this contract without adjustment to price. See FAR Overhaul - FAR Part DEVIATION Guidance | Acquisition.GOV. Any clauses contained in this contract that have already been, or are later, updated in the RFO and adopted by DHS shall be considered to be amended to mirror the most up to date FAR RFO language.

In compliance with Executive Order 14173, “Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity,” dated January 21, 2025, the contractor agrees that its compliance in all respects with applicable Federal anti-discrimination laws is material to the government’s payment decisions for purposes of section 3729(b)(4) of title 31, United States Code; and, by virtue of submitting a quote/offer, the contractor certifies that it does not operate any programs promoting DEI that violate any applicable Federal anti-discrimination laws.

No requirement in this contract should conflict or contravene Executive Order “Unleashing American Energy” dated January 20, 2025. To the extent any requirement may conflict or contravene that Executive Order, the requirement is deemed inapplicable to this contract. This would include requirements related to “climate-related risk management and/or greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventory and/or reduction target disclosure requirements.” The Contractor should consult with the Contracting Officer on any such requirement they determine is inconsistent with the Executive Order, and work on proposed modifications to comply with the EO and statutory requirements.

I.1 DESCRIPTION:

This acquisition shall be conducted using the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) Part 12 and 15. This solicitation is anticipated to result in a single award of an indefinite delivery / indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract for the U.S.

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Non-Intrusive Inspection (NII) Medium Energy Mobile System (MEMS).

I.2 MINIMUM GUARANTEE:

The minimum guarantee of the anticipated contract shall be one (1) system. A delivery order will be awarded concurrently with the award of the IDIQ contract.

I.3 MAXIMUM AMOUNT:

The contractor is not obligated to fulfill requirements (singly or in the aggregate) that exceed $270,000,000.00 under this IDIQ.

I.4 ORDERING PERIOD:

The ordering period of the anticipated contract is 60 months from the date of the award (5 years total).

I.5 OBLIGATION:

The anticipated IDIQ contract does not obligate any funding. The individual DOs placed against the contract shall obligate the funding.

I.6 TYPES OF DELIVERY ORDERS:

Any DOs awarded as a result of the anticipated contract shall be awarded on a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) basis. Orders may be issued by any CBP Contracting Officer via email.

I.7 CONTRACT PRICING:

Prices for the systems shall be FOB Destination. The Contractor shall be required to deliver units to locations specified at the order level. The quoted price shall be a fixed price for the entire ordering period and shall include shipping charges, set-up costs, and factory test representation. Units may be delivered worldwide, but the schedule pricing should include pricing for anywhere in the contiguous United States (i.e., the lower 48 states). Additional shipping charges may be quoted at the order level for any units outside of the continental United States (OCONUS).

(iii) If the Contractor provides written justification to substantiate the propriety of the markings within the period set in paragraph (e)(1)(i) of this clause, the Contracting Officer will consider such written justification and determine whether or not the markings are to be cancelled or ignored. If the Contracting Officer determines that the markings are authorized, the Contractor will be so notified in writing. If the Contracting Officer determines, with concurrence of the head of the contracting activity, that the markings are not authorized, the Contracting Officer will furnish the Contractor a written determination, which determination will become the final agency decision regarding the appropriateness of the markings unless the Contractor files suit in a court of competent jurisdiction within 90 days of receipt of the Contracting Officer's decision.

(f) Omitted or incorrect markings. (1) Data delivered to the Government without any restrictive markings shall be deemed to have been furnished with unlimited rights. The Government is not liable for the disclosure, use, or reproduction of such data.

(2) If the unmarked data has not been disclosed without restriction outside the Government, the Contractor may request, within 6 months (or a longer time approved by the Contracting Officer in writing for good cause shown) after delivery of the data, permission to have authorized notices placed on the data at the Contractor's expense.

The Contracting Officer may agree to do so if the Contractor--

(i) Identifies the data to which the omitted notice is to be applied;

(ii) Demonstrates that the omission of the notice was inadvertent;

(iii) Establishes that the proposed notice is authorized; and

(ii) Correct any incorrect notices.

(g) Protection of limited rights data and restricted computer software. (1) The Contractor may withhold from delivery qualifying limited rights data or restricted computer software that are not data identified in paragraphs (b)(1)(i), (ii), and

(iii) of this clause. As a condition to this withholding, the Contractor shall--

(i) Identify the data being withheld; and

(ii) Furnish form, fit, and function data instead.

(2) Limited rights data that are formatted as a computer database for delivery to the Government shall be treated as limited rights data and not restricted computer software.

II.26 3052.204-71 CONTRACTOR EMPLOYEE ACCESS (JULY 2023)(Deviation 25-12)(effective November 3, 2025), ALTERNATE II

(a) Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) is any information the Government creates or possesses, or an entity creates or possesses for or on behalf of the Government (other than classified information) that a law, regulation, or Governmentwide policy requires or permits an agency to handle using safeguarding or dissemination controls. This definition includes the following CUI categories and subcategories of information:

(1) Chemical-terrorism Vulnerability Information (CVI) as defined in 6 CFR part 27, ‘‘Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism

Standards,’’ and as further described in supplementary guidance issued by an authorized official of the Department of Homeland Security (including the Revised Procedural Manual ‘‘Safeguarding Information Designated as Chemical-Terrorism Vulnerability Information’’ dated September 2008);

(2) Protected Critical Infrastructure Information (PCII) as set out in the Critical Infrastructure Information Act of 2002

(title XXII, subtitle B of the Homeland Security Act of 2002 as amended through Pub. L. 116-283), PCII’s implementing regulations (6 CFR part 29), the PCII Program Procedures Manual, and any supplementary guidance officially communicated by an authorized official of the Department of Homeland Security, the PCII Program Manager, or a PCII Program Manager Designee;

(3) Sensitive Security Information (SSI) as defined in 49 CFR part 1520, ‘‘Protection of Sensitive Security Information,’’ as amended, and any supplementary guidance officially communicated by an authorized official of the Department of Homeland Security (including the Assistant Secretary for the Transportation Security Administration or designee), including Department of Homeland Security MD 11056.1, ‘‘Sensitive Security Information (SSI)’’ and, within the Transportation Security Administration, TSA MD 2810.1, ‘‘SSI Program’’;

(4) Homeland Security Agreement Information means information the Department of Homeland Security receives pursuant to an agreement with State, local, Tribal, territorial, or private sector partners that is required to be protected by that agreement. The Department receives this information in furtherance of the missions of the Department, including, but not limited to, support of the Fusion Center Initiative and activities for cyber information sharing consistent with the Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act of 2015;

(5) Homeland Security Enforcement Information means unclassified information of a sensitive nature lawfully created, possessed, or transmitted by the Department of Homeland Security in furtherance of its immigration, customs, and other civil and criminal enforcement missions, the unauthorized disclosure of which could adversely impact the mission of the Department;

(6) International Agreement Information means information the Department of Homeland Security receives that is required to be protected by an information sharing agreement or arrangement with a foreign government, an international organization of governments or any element thereof, an international or foreign public or judicial body, or an international or foreign private or non-governmental organization;

(7) Information Systems Vulnerability Information (ISVI) means:

(i) Department of Homeland Security information technology (IT) systems data revealing infrastructure used for servers, desktops, and networks; applications name, version, and release; switching, router, and gateway information; interconnections and access methods; and mission or business use/ need. Examples of ISVI are systems inventories and enterprise architecture models. Information pertaining to national security systems and eligible for classification under Executive Order 13526 will be classified as appropriate; and/or

(ii) Information regarding developing or current technology, the release of which could hinder the objectives of the

Department, compromise a technological advantage or countermeasure, cause a denial of service, or provide an adversary with sufficient information to clone, counterfeit, or circumvent a process or system;

(8) Operations Security Information means Department of Homeland Security information that could be collected, analyzed, and exploited by a foreign adversary to identify intentions, capabilities, operations, and vulnerabilities that threaten operational security for the missions of the Department;

(9) Personnel Security Information means information that could result in physical risk to Department of Homeland

Security personnel or other individuals whom the Department is responsible for protecting;

(10) Physical Security Information means reviews or reports illustrating or disclosing facility infrastructure or security vulnerabilities related to the protection of Federal buildings, grounds, or property. For example, threat assessments, system security plans, contingency plans, risk management plans, business impact analysis studies, and certification and accreditation documentation;

(11) Privacy Information includes both Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Sensitive Personally Identifiable

Information (SPII). PII refers to information that can be used to distinguish or trace an individual’s identity, either alone, or when combined with other information that is linked or linkable to a specific individual; and SPII is a subset of PII that if lost, compromised, or disclosed without authorization could result in substantial harm, embarrassment, inconvenience, or unfairness to an individual. To determine whether information is PII, DHS will perform an assessment of the specific risk that an individual can be identified using the information with other information that is linked or linkable to the individual. In performing this assessment, it is important to recognize that information that is not PII can become PII whenever additional information becomes available, in any medium or from any source, that would make it possible to identify an individual. Certain data elements are particularly sensitive and may alone present an increased risk of harm to the individual.

(i) Examples of stand-alone PII that are particularly sensitive include: Social Security numbers (SSNs), driver’s license or State identification numbers, Alien Registration Numbers (A-numbers), financial account numbers, and biometric identifiers.

(ii) Multiple pieces of information may present an increased risk of harm to the individual when combined, posing an increased risk of harm to the individual. SPII may also consist of any grouping of information that contains an individual’s name or other unique identifier plus one or more of the following elements:

(A) Truncated SSN (such as last 4 digits);

(B) Date of birth (month, day, and year);

(C) Citizenship or immigration status;

(D) Ethnic or religious affiliation;

(E) Sexual orientation;

(F) Criminal history;

(G) Medical information; and

(H) System authentication information, such as mother’s birth name, account passwords, or personal identification numbers (PINs).

(iii) Other PII that may present an increased risk of harm to the individual depending on its context, such as a list of employees and their performance ratings or an unlisted home address or phone number. The context includes the purpose for which the PII was collected, maintained, and used. This assessment is critical because the same information in different contexts can reveal additional information about the impacted individual.

(b) Information Resources means information and related resources, such as personnel, equipment, funds, and information technology.

(c) Contractor employees working on this contract must complete such forms as may be necessary for security or other reasons, including the conduct of background investigations to determine suitability. Completed forms shall be submitted as directed by the Contracting Officer. Upon the Contracting Officer’s request, the Contractor’s employees shall be fingerprinted or subject to other investigations as required. All Contractor employees requiring recurring access to government facilities or access to CUI or information resources are required to have a favorably adjudicated background investigation prior to commencing work on this contract unless this requirement is waived under departmental procedures.

(d) The Contracting Officer may require the Contractor to prohibit individuals from working on the contract if the

Government deems their initial or continued employment contrary to the public interest for any reason, including, but not limited to, carelessness, insubordination, incompetence, or security concerns.

(e) Work under this contract may involve access to CUI. The Contractor shall access and use CUI only for the purpose of furnishing advice or assistance directly to the Government in support of the Government’s activities, and shall not disclose, orally or in writing, CUI for any other purpose to any person unless authorized in writing by the Contracting Officer. For those Contractor employees authorized to access CUI, the Contractor shall ensure that these persons receive initial and refresher training concerning the protection and disclosure of CUI. Initial training shall be completed within 60 days of contract award and refresher training shall be completed every 2 years thereafter.

(f) The Contractor shall include this clause in all subcontracts at any tier where the subcontractor may have access to government facilities, CUI, or information resources.

(g) Each individual employed under the contract shall be a citizen of the United States of America, or an alien who has been lawfully admitted for permanent residence as evidenced by a Permanent Resident Card (USCIS I-551). Any exceptions must be approved by the Department’s Chief Security Officer or designee.

(h) Contractors shall identify in their proposals, the names and citizenship of all non-U.S. citizens proposed to work under the contract. Any additions or deletions of non-U.S. citizens after contract award shall also be reported to the Contracting Officer.

12)(effective November 3, 2025)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause--

Adequate Security means security protections commensurate with the risk resulting from the unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction of information.
