About this opportunity

The Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA) issued a sole source justification for Criminal History Record Information (CHRI) access services to support personnel vetting and background investigations for federal agencies including DOJ, FBI, and DHS. The contract, designated HS002125CE011, was awarded on June 26, 2025, with a performance period extending from July 1, 2025, through December 31, 2029, spanning five and a half years. While the awarded vendor and contract value are redacted from the public documentation, the justification indicates that Nlets, a non-profit organization, is the sole provider capable of delivering direct access to comprehensive criminal history record information repositories nationwide and internationally through their secure computer-based message switching system. DCSA's market research conducted on April 9, 2025, confirmed that no alternative vendors exist that can provide the same level of comprehensive criminal justice information access required for the agency's background investigation mission. The procurement falls under NAICS code 519290 for Web Search Portals and All Other Information Services, reflecting the specialized nature of accessing criminal history databases across multiple jurisdictions.
