About this opportunity
The U.S. Marshals Service issued a sole-source justification notice on September 2, 2026 for award to Rank One Computing Corporation for Biometric Identification Software Development Kit (SDK) licenses under FAR Part 6.103-1(b) authority, with responses due by 11:00 am CST on September 17, 2026.
The requirement covers 400 biometric SDK licenses for the Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System (JPATS), supporting touchless facial recognition and multimodal biometric matching with sub-one-second response times on mobile devices for law enforcement operations. The contract includes one base period plus four option periods. USMS determined Rank One Computing as the sole responsible source capable of meeting JPATS security and operational safety requirements, citing the vendor's specialization in computer vision and facial recognition software, integration within the JPATS Mobile App and Managed Information System, and the prohibitive costs and operational risks of vendor migration including data migration, software re-architecting, and potential deactivation of critical biometric matching pipelines.
This notice is informational only and does not constitute a formal solicitation. The Government will consider written information submitted within fifteen days of publication. Responses must be addressed via email to Victor J. Stamps, Contracting Officer, at Victor.J.Stamps@usdoj.gov. Phone calls will not be accepted. The NAICS code is 541519 (Other Computer Related Services).
