This solicitation is set aside as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) contract further restricted to local vendors residing or primarily conducting business in Puerto Rico under the Stafford Act Section 307.

The contract structure includes a Labor Hour (LH) pricing model for protective service officers with a ceiling of 98,915 labor hours for both the base period (April 15, 2026, to April 14, 2027) and the one-year option period, combined with Firm Fixed Price (FFP) for patrol vehicle services covering 365 days per period. Performance will occur at five primary locations: the Puerto Rico Recovery Office and Consolidated Resources Center in Guaynabo, the National Processing Service Center Call Center in Guaynabo, and three Logistics Management Directorate Distribution Center warehouse annexes in Bayamon, Cayey, and Ponce. All services will be provided across all municipalities of Puerto Rico, including Vieques and Culebra, with prevailing wage rates established under Service Contract Act Wage Determination 2015-5707, Revision 28, effective December 3, 2025.
