About the company
Desko GMBH, a German for-profit limited liability company, manufactures and supplies boarding pass scanners and related security scanning equipment to the Transportation Security Administration as a prime contractor on full-and-open federal procurements, with no subcontract footprint. The vendor operates from Bayreuth, Germany, competing across multiple PSC categories centered on electrical and electronic components and security detection systems; all work is performed in Germany.
Desko's federal customer base is singular and concentrated. The Transportation Security Administration accounts for 27 of 28 awards (99% of the combined potential value of $27.5 million), with a single Department of State Bureau of International Narcotics Law Enforcement award worth $53 thousand. This extreme concentration — one agency, one product category — defines the vendor's federal footprint.
Recent work centers on boarding pass scanner procurement and sustainment. Representative prime awards include a $1.117 million firm fixed-price delivery order from April 2024 for 96 boarding pass scanner units with an optional line item for 500 additional units; a $709 thousand definitive contract from September 2026 running through March 2029; a $287 thousand delivery order from September 2022 covering 200 boarding pass scanner units plus maintenance and project management; and a $152 thousand delivery order from September 2023 for 109 boarding pass scanner units and 24 months of extended maintenance. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $8.2 million against $27.6 million in combined potential value, indicating that many awards remain unexercised or partially exercised.
The vendor operates under three named parent IDIQs: an Indefinite Delivery Contract (70T04018D9DAP2042) supporting eight task orders worth $2.7 million, a TSA Boarding Pass Scanners vehicle anchoring six task orders at $2.5 million, and a 2013–2016 Boarding Pass Scanners vehicle with two task orders at $1.9 million. Activity is consistent at one award per year from 2022 through 2026. Only one award ($215 thousand in potential value) completes within the next twenty-four months, limiting immediate recompete exposure.
