About this opportunity
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Region 04 is soliciting proposals for Level II Armed Protective Security Officers to provide security services at disaster-related sites and facilities throughout North Carolina under major disaster declarations. The contract requires contractors to provide 25 armed protective security officers who are Department of Labor category 27102 Guard II personnel, available within 24 hours of contract execution and capable of deploying to various county locations as directed. Key qualifications include U.S. citizenship, state security officer certification, active federal and state firearms permits, CPR/First Aid/AED certification, current firearms training and qualification, and a minimum of two years of security or military experience. The evaluation will be conducted using a pass/fail approach with comparative evaluation of quotations based on technical factors (addressing state licensing, insurance, facilities, weapons rosters, uniforms, financial capability, staffing plans, business continuity, and transition plans), past performance (evaluated through three relevant references and CPARS data), and price. Proposals are due February 20, 2026 at 4:00 PM Eastern Time, with questions due by January 30, 2026 at 12:00 PM Eastern Time, and answers provided by February 12, 2026.
This solicitation is a local area set-aside exclusively for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) located in North Carolina, representing a re-competition of the incumbent contract held by Strategic Security Corp. (Contract No. 70FBR425C00000015). The contract has a base period of three months (March 5, 2026 through June 4, 2026) with three additional three-month option periods and a potential six-month extension, with FEMA anticipating a single award by the end of March 2026. The contract encompasses approximately 19,608 units of armed guard security services, though specific budget or award values are not disclosed in the solicitation materials. All 25 security officers and associated company firearms must be in place at contract start, with contractors required to maintain either government-ready-to-occupy leases or separate leased facilities for administrative operations and weapons storage under exclusive contractor control. The place of performance is primarily Asheville, North Carolina (28801), with potential service requirements across all counties throughout North Carolina as determined by FEMA task orders.
