About this opportunity
The Department of Homeland Security Office of Procurement Operations issued a Sole-Source Justification Notice on April 14, 2026, for the renewal of the Consolidated Lead Evaluation and Reporting (CLEAR) digital data system, a comprehensive database platform providing billions of data points and public records technology designed for law enforcement and investigative work. The justification for sole-source procurement was based on market research confirming that CLEAR is the only data source meeting all DHS investigative requirements, as no competitor products provide equivalent integration of license plate recognition data, real-time incarceration records, and comprehensive geolocation analytics within a single commercial database suite. The contract was awarded to West Publishing Corporation through GSA Federal Supply Schedule contract number GS-02F-026DA on March 31, 2026, with the specific award amount redacted from the available documentation. The procurement covers a base period from April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2027, with two optional 12-month extension periods that would extend the contract through March 31, 2029. The contracting officer determined the procurement represents best value to the government, with pricing previously negotiated by GSA deemed fair and reasonable, and DHS committed to continue ongoing market research to identify potential alternatives for future acquisitions.
