B O S Security, Inc.

B O S Security, Inc., operating as Bos Security, is a security services contractor that holds a single-award indefinite-delivery contract with the Transportation Security Administration worth $5.3 billion for airport passenger and baggage screening operations nationwide under the TSA Screening Partnership Program, awarded June 1, 2026, with a ten-year ordering period through May 31, 2036. The vendor operates as a prime contractor exclusively (100% of recent awards) and is a Subchapter S corporation based in Athens, Georgia, owned by Carmack Solutions Group LLC.

Bos Security's federal footprint is dominated by TSA work. The Department of Homeland Security's Transportation Security Administration accounts for 10 awards and $8.65 billion in combined potential value — essentially the entire vendor's recent award portfolio. The Department of the Army Training and Doctrine Command, the GSA Federal Acquisition Service, the National Archives and Records Administration, and the Department of the Army round out the customer set, collectively representing less than 1% of potential value. The concentration is extreme: TSA's single-award IDIQ ceiling of $5.3 billion dwarfs all other vehicles. Beyond the TSA master contract, Bos Security holds task orders under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (6 task orders, $11.2 million combined potential value) and smaller delivery orders through the TSA Screening Partnership Program parent vehicle ($35.5 million across 5 task orders).

Bos Security's concrete capability portfolio centers on security guard services and airport passenger and baggage screening operations. Representative work includes a $4.2 million firm fixed-price delivery order from TSA for comprehensive screening operations at Tupelo Regional Airport (Mississippi) through November 2026, exercising option period 4; a $3.3 million security guard services order from the National Archives and Records Administration for the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library in Atlanta under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (performed April 2022 through September 2024); and a $5,000 delivery order from TSA issued June 1, 2026, supporting privatized screening services at various locations with performance at Springfield, Virginia, through May 31, 2027. All 17 awards classify under NAICS 488190 (Other Support Services for Air Transportation) or its security-services equivalent, with 13 categorized under PSC Housekeeping-Guard.

Across SCI-reportable federal service contracts (FY2022–FY2024), Bos Security invoiced $9.4 million to the federal government: $3.7 million in FY2022 across 35.4 FTEs, $2.9 million in FY2023 across 32.0 FTEs, and $2.8 million in FY2024 across 29.0 FTEs. Government-paid hourly rates on SCI prime contracts ran a median of $43.26/hr, with the 10th percentile at $29.28/hr and the 90th percentile at $68.89/hr — a range consistent with security guard and support labor. The vendor's GSA Schedule labor portfolio spans 16 categories from General Clerk I ($36.39/hr) through Police Officer 2 ($137.87/hr), all requiring a high school equivalent education and no security clearance. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, subcontractors performed approximately 6% of total contractor hours, with 5 named subcontractors reported.

Activity has been sparse and uneven: one award per year in 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022, then dormant until two awards in 2026. Combined dollars obligated across all 17 awards total $48.5 million — just 1% of the $8.66 billion combined potential value, reflecting the nascency of the TSA $5.3 billion master contract. Within the next twenty-four months, two awards (combined potential value $4.2 million) reach ultimate completion and face recompete. The vendor does not engage subcontractors as a teaming strategy; all awards are prime vehicles with minimal sub engagement, indicating a largely captive delivery model.
