The contract requires a qualified contractor to provide digital fingerprint submission services using the Secure Web Fingerprint Transaction (SWFT) application for potential employees in the continental United States and Hawaii. Bidders must be an FBI-approved third party channeler with a web-based appointment scheduling system and capable of covering at least 90% of the target population within a 45-minute drive.

The proposal response is due by December 6, 2024, at 12:00 PM EST, as specified in Amendment 0001 to the original solicitation.

The contract is a firm-fixed unit price arrangement with a 12-month base period and four 12-month option years, targeting approximately 2,000 new applicants annually. There are no specific set-aside designations for this procurement, making it open to all qualified vendors in the Investigation and Personal Background Check Services sector (NAICS 561611). Pricing will be structured on a per-fingerprint submission basis, with allowances for up to 15% hard-card submissions. The place of performance is nationwide, focusing on the continental United States and Hawaii. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the contract's scope and annual volume suggest a potentially significant opportunity for contractors specializing in background investigation and fingerprinting services.
