This is a Sources Sought for the National Support Center Under Vehicle Inspecti

The Social Security Administration is conducting market research through this Sources Sought notice for the design, installation, and activation of an Under Vehicle Inspection System (UVIS) and truck lane replacement at the National Support Center Primary Entry Control Facility in Urbana, Maryland. The procurement falls under NAICS code 561621 - Security Systems Services (except Locksmiths) and PSC code N063 for Installation of Equipment- Alarm, Signal, and Security Detection Systems. SSA is specifically seeking to identify qualified contractors that meet small business criteria, including small business, 8(a) qualified small business, small disadvantaged business, women-owned small business, veteran-owned small business, service disabled veteran-owned small business, or Historically Underutilized Business Zone small business designations. The notice does not specify evaluation criteria at this market research stage, as this is a sources sought inquiry rather than a formal solicitation. Interested parties have until August 15, 2025 to respond to this market research notice, which was posted on August 8, 2025.

This opportunity indicates no set-aside designation is currently established, though SSA is clearly targeting various small business categories through their market research efforts. The notice does not identify any incumbent contractors or current service providers for this security system installation project. No specific contract values, budget ranges, or award amounts are disclosed in this pre-solicitation phase. The timeline for the actual design, installation, and activation services is not specified, nor are quantities of equipment or systems detailed beyond the single UVIS installation at the Maryland facility. The procurement appears to be a single-location project focused exclusively on enhancing security capabilities at SSA's National Support Center primary entry point.
