Law Enforcement Badges - 2nd Amended

The United States Secret Service Administrative Operations Division is procuring custom law enforcement badges for Special Agents, Uniformed Division Officers, and Technical Law Enforcement personnel through a 5-year Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract. The procurement requires high-quality, durable badges that must match USSS design specifications, incorporate approved materials including CDA 425 metal with two-toned finishes and Rhodium-plated stars, and carry a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects under normal wear and tear. The contract includes five primary badge types: Large and Small Special Agent Badges, Large and Small Uniform Division Badges, and Uniform Plates, all featuring interchangeable banners for various roles such as Special Agent, Special Officer, Technician, Security Specialist, Federal Officer, and Director. The solicitation will be awarded on a Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis with emphasis on quickest turnaround time per badge order, requiring firm fixed pricing for all five ordering periods. The proposal submission deadline has been extended to June 18, 2025, at 12:00 PM EST, with a 15-page maximum quote requirement and a minimum contract guarantee of 500 badges to be met within the first badge order.

This solicitation is set aside as a Total Small Business procurement under NAICS code 332999 (All Other Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing), though some documents reference it as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-aside. The contract structure calls for 600 Large and Small Special Agent badges and 500 Uniform Division badges per ordering period, with quantities of 600-500 per badge type per contract year across the five-year performance period. The badges will be manufactured for USSS headquarters with place of performance in Washington, DC 20223. The contractor must maintain rigorous security controls, submit a quality control plan, and undergo first article testing, with all badges subject to USSS review and potential replacement at the contractor's expense. While no specific budget range has been disclosed by the government, the solicitation emphasizes the need for contractors to handle badge cost escalation annually and meet exacting manufacturing standards including specific material requirements, blue enamel detailing, serial numbering, and custom design elements reflecting the Secret Service's heritage.
