About this opportunity

The Department of Justice, United States Trustee Program, has awarded a sole-source contract to Parker Tide Corp for Personnel Security Support Services with an estimated value of $96,020.64, procured under GSA Ordering Procedures subpart 538.71.

The justification cites urgent and compelling circumstances. The USTP Security Management Branch experienced staffing reductions from six to two personnel due to resignations and implementation of Executive Order 14158, which eliminated the HACU student volunteer program and prohibited filling vacant positions. The office currently manages approximately 713 pending adjudicative determinations with background investigations ranging from 80–150 pages in length, and processes 20–60 new hires at any given time requiring security package reviews, pre-employment suitability checks, file establishment and maintenance, and background investigation initiation. The branch previously processed an average of 33 new adjudications monthly while managing a backlog exceeding 1,200 cases.

Parker Tide Corp was selected based on prior performance under existing GSA task order 15JUST25F0000007, demonstrating required expertise and familiarity with USTP personnel security operations and policies. Price reasonableness will be determined using current price lists, comparison to independent government estimates, and other reasonable bases under FAR 8.4 and GSA subpart 538.7102-2(d), which exempts FSS contract pricing from order-level fair and reasonable determinations. The award was made on August 3, 2026. NAICS 561611 (Investigation and Personal Background Check Services); PSC R499 (Support—Professional: Other).
