About this opportunity

The Federal Bureau of Investigation intends to procure a Morse Watchmans Key Watcher electronic key control and accountability system on a sole-source basis, with interested parties able to submit capability statements by 5:00 PM EST on June 11, 2026, to demonstrate why competition would be advantageous to the Government.

The procurement consists of two complete KWT-32 systems and thirty KW-8619 non-random key return features. The systems will support secure storage, tracking, and management of keys at the FBI's Redstone facility, with capabilities including user authentication, real-time monitoring, audit reporting, and secure key access per established security protocols. Delivery is required within 120 days after order receipt.

The FBI is proceeding under FAR 6.302-1 (Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements). Market research confirmed that while similar key management systems exist, only the Morse Watchmans KeyWatcher System meets all compatibility requirements with existing FBI infrastructure without requiring system modifications, significant retraining, or introducing security risks. The procurement is structured as a Firm-Fixed-Price contract with no options.

Interested parties submitting capability statements must include DUNS number, CAGE code, UEI number, business size, and a detailed statement addressing firm experience, equipment and assets, background, and ability to provide the system without compromising quality, reliability, safety, accuracy, and schedule. Emailed responses only; no phone calls. The Government reserves discretion to conduct a competitive procurement based on responses received.
