Under the authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-2 Unusual and Compelling Urgency, CBP requires a sole source FFP type contract with G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc. (DUNS 001903723) for vehicle security transportation and medical/facility security guard services for the U.S. Border Patrol (USBP) along the southwest border of the United States. USBP is a component of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP. The contract will have a base ordering period of 6 months (March 4, 2019 through September 3, 2019), with one 3-month option (September 4, 2019 through December 3, 2019). The total estimated valkue is approximately $50,000,000 for a base period of 6 months and a 3-month option period. Due to the Government shutdown and migrant caravan situation on the southwest border, G4S is the only vendor that can provide these transportation and transportation guard services beginning on March 4, 2019. This acquisition is only needed to provide CBP continuity of essential services while CBP executes the re- compete. Only G4S has the trained, certified and prepared Transport Officers (TOs) to cover all routes crossing state/sector lines. These same TOs can be used for unusual circumstances, such as surge for issues such as caravans and similar that requires crossing state/sector lines. No other vender can immediately provide the necessary transportation and facility/medical guard services that cover nine sectors which is CBP's real and urgent need. CBP is currently planning a long term contract/BPA among GSA schedule 84 Category 246 54 holders for this requirement. That solicitation has not been released yet. As part of that process, CBP performed extensive market research to determine the current capability of GSA Schedule holders. While several large businesses have the long term capability of performing CBP's transportation services, only G4S has the current capability to continue to provide the services effective March 4th 2019.
