About this opportunity
The Executive Office for United States Attorneys (EOUSA) has published a Special Notice of Intent to sole source a Purchase Order to Point Security, Inc. for the acquisition and installation of a Smiths Detection X-ray screening system and related metal detection equipment at the Charleston, South Carolina U.S. Attorney's Office facility. This sole source procurement is being pursued under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, which permits award to a single responsible source when no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The notice was posted on April 16, 2026, and represents an informational announcement rather than a competitive procurement opportunity. EOUSA has determined that Point Security, Inc. is the only responsible source capable of meeting the agency's specific technical and operational requirements.
The primary objective of this procurement is to replace an existing Rapiscan 618XR-G X-ray machine with a new Smiths Detection SDX6040 X-Ray screening system, supplemented by CEIA metal detection equipment, to enhance security screening capabilities at the Charleston USAO facility. Point Security, Inc. is responsible for comprehensive delivery and installation services, including uncrating, inspection, positioning, removal of the old equipment, calibration, certification, and operator training for JPSO Security Officers and EOUSA representatives. The anticipated delivery date is on or before June 2026. While this is not a request for competitive quotations and no Request for Quote will be issued, the government will accept information from interested parties submitted within five days of the notice publication date. Contractors seeking to respond should contact Contracting Officer Bryant Gilbertson at bryant.gilbertson@usdoj.gov, with a response deadline of April 22, 2026.
