Date: 09/24/2020 PR Number: 2011-5638

1. Nature and/or description of the item/service being procured and anticipated cost:

CBP has a requirement on a sole source basis to procure Juggernaut brand, customized tactical phone cases and duty belt mounts. The customized Juggernaut items are one of the components that has been tested and piloted in U.S. Border Patrol (USBP) sector locations across the United States as part of the Agent Visualization Platform (APV) to determine a solution for the CBP Commissioner’s requirement to implement a “Blue Force Tracking” solution.

CBP conducted an officer safety pilot program to meet the CBP Commissioner’s requirement for a “Blue Force Tracking” solution. USBP has a significant need to continue the deployment of the “Blue Force Tracking” solution beyond the limited pilot quantities in order to meet safety and technological requirements. This is in direct support of DHS and CBP in its mission critical initiatives to protect the borders of the United States and providing for officer safety.

The Juggernaut tactical military grade phone cases and compatible duty belt mounts are one component utilized by USBP to determine a course of action forward for the Agent Visualization Platform (AVP).
