This is a Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) Sole Source Justification document for a modification to an existing task order under the General Services Administration (GSA) FSS Program.

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA), through its Enrollment Services and Vetting Programs (ESVP) division, is seeking to procure additional touchless identity verification units from ReliaSource, Inc. via modification to existing task order 70T02025F7503N004 under procurement request PR267503A016. The modification covers equipment (Touchless Identity Units for CMAP), associated warranty and shipping, deployment activities to install and configure units at CMAP lane locations, field support during deployment, and hardware and helpdesk support during optional periods. The base period runs from September 29, 2025, through September 28, 2026, with funding from Fiscal Year 2026 appropriated funds. The equipment will support biometric identity verification at airports to support Controlled Matching Analysis Process (CMAP) lanes.

The sole source justification is based on GSAR 538.7104-3(b)(iii), asserting that the modification represents a logical follow-on to the competitively awarded original task order and is in the government's interest for economy and efficiency. The original order was competitively awarded through GSA e-Buy with three vendors submitting quotes. ReliaSource's Touchless Identity Solution uses a specific, DHS S&T-approved hardware configuration (Dell tablets, FLIR cameras, Kowa lenses) that TSA has already integrated into its applications. The justification emphasizes that ReliaSource and its subcontractors are already producing and deploying this validated configuration under the existing contract. The Contracting Officer (Kyra Froemke) certified the justification on March 4, 2026, with approval required at the division director and TSA Competition Advocate levels due to the estimated procurement value exceeding $900,000.
