About this opportunity
The Department of Homeland Security's Transportation Security Administration (TSA) intends to solicit industry for airport security screening services through a comprehensive Screening Partnership Program (SPP) Follow-On Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract. The solicitation will cover comprehensive screening of passengers and personal property at airports participating in the SPP, with services classified under NAICS code 488190. The government anticipates issuing the final Request for Proposal (RFP) on www.sam.gov in December 2024, with potential offerors required to monitor the website for the solicitation and any subsequent amendments. Evaluation criteria and specific requirements will be detailed in the full solicitation, with the expectation that vendors can provide robust airport security screening capabilities. All correspondence and submissions must be made in accordance with instructions that will be contained in the forthcoming solicitation posting.
TSA plans to make multiple awards under this IDIQ contract, specifically targeting approximately nine small business awards and six awards to other than small businesses, though they reserve the right to adjust these numbers based on competition and operational considerations. The contract will have a 10-year ordering period from September 2025 through August 2035, with individual task orders typically spanning a base year and up to four one-year options. Each task order may be tailored to the specific needs of individual airports and TSA operational requirements. While no specific incumbent contractors were mentioned, the solicitation will be issued on a full and open competitive basis, with potential task orders that can be solicited either on a full and open basis or set aside for small businesses. The applicable federal cost estimate for a sample task order suggests significant potential contract value, with a single 12-month task order estimated at approximately $6.5 million.
