About this opportunity
The Department of Homeland Security US Coast Guard intends to award a sole-source task order to ABSG Consulting, Inc. for Maritime Security Risk Analysis Model (MSRAM) database maintenance, model integration, and operational field support, valued at $884,576.32.
The justification cites FAR 8.401(b), FAR Class Deviation 25-20 R1, GSAR 538.7104-3(b)(iii), and HSAM 3008.401-71(a) as a logical follow-on to a previously competitively awarded Federal Supply Schedule order (70Z02325FPSA20001, expiring September 11, 2026). The sole-source award is necessary to ensure continuity of critical maritime terrorism risk assessment services while a competitive follow-on Blanket Purchase Agreement and task order are completed. ABSG Consulting developed the MSRAM database with Coast Guard subject matter experts and possesses unique institutional knowledge and specialized technical expertise. The bridge task order runs six months, from September 12, 2026 through March 11, 2027, on a firm fixed-price basis. Transition risk and service disruption are avoided by maintaining the incumbent contractor during the competitive follow-on procurement process. Performance includes database maintenance and optimization, model integration and enhancements, and tier-2 helpdesk support with training curriculum development. Funding is from Operations and Support funds in Fiscal Year 2026 under solicitation 70Z02326QPSA20001.
