Point Security Inc.

Point Security Inc. Headquarters Division, a certified small business based in Lexington, North Carolina, supplies security screening equipment—primarily X-ray machines, trace detection devices, and related maintenance services—to federal agencies as a prime contractor on 94% of its recent awards and as a subcontractor on specialized security modernization programs. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation competing in both full-and-open and set-aside procurements, with total small business set-asides accounting for roughly one-quarter of recent prime awards.

Point Security's customer base concentrates among civilian agencies requiring security infrastructure. The top five customers by potential value account for 60% of combined contract value, led by the Department of the Treasury United States Mint (16 awards, $8.3 million), the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration (8 awards, $3 million), and the Social Security Administration (10 awards, $1.8 million). By award count, the Mint and SSA dominate, though the FBI Headquarters Division and Bureau of Prisons also place recurring orders. The vendor has worked with 97 distinct customer agencies across a twenty-year operating history, indicating broad federal penetration across civilian security and facility protection portfolios.

Point Security's capability portfolio centers on Smiths Detection X-ray screening systems—compact and pallet-scanning variants—combined with trace detection equipment such as IonScanner 600 narcotics and explosive detectors and associated consumables. Representative prime contracts include a $2.587 million definitive contract with the Federal Aviation Administration for X-ray machine replacement and maintenance at FAA facilities (awarded September 2021), a $660 thousand modification with the Social Security Administration to exercise Option Year I of an ongoing X-ray scanner maintenance contract at SSA headquarters and the National Support Center (awarded September 2024), a $927 thousand total small business set-aside with an unnamed Headquarters Division customer for X-ray machines (awarded September 2024), and a $450 thousand X-ray equipment maintenance support contract with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering SEC headquarters and nine regional offices (awarded September 2024). Equipment delivery and installation work is performed from Point Security's Lexington headquarters, with maintenance and service operations geographically distributed to customer sites nationwide.

The vendor holds a $4 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the U.S. Mint (awarded February 2022, completion February 2027) for X-ray machine equipment, maintenance, and service agreements at Mint facilities in Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Denver. Point Security has drawn ten delivery orders totaling $1.9 million against this IDC since award. Two additional parent IDCs—contract TMHQ16C0040 and contract 2031JG22D00003—have generated four task orders valued at $1.6 million combined for security detection systems and related maintenance. The vendor does not hold positions on government-wide acquisition contracts (GWACs) or GSA Schedules; work is routed through agency-specific IDCs and purchase orders.

Activity has been volatile. Awards per year ranged from 7 (2022) to 19 (2024), with 2025 declining to 12 awards and 2026 showing only 6 awards in the snapshot window through early July. Nine awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry $4.3 million in combined potential value, representing recompete exposure for the vendor and recompete opportunity for competitors. Combined potential value across the entire 240-award portfolio stands at $26.4 million, with $23.4 million (89%) obligated, reflecting the purchase-order-dominated nature of Point Security's work.

In its subcontractor role, Point Security supplies X-ray equipment and detection system components to large federal primes. Recent sub awards include work under Fluor Federal Petroleum Operations on Strategic Petroleum Reserve facility management and operation (sampling wands for IonScanner 600 trace detectors, awarded April 2025), General Dynamics Information Technology on Global Security Engineering and Supply Chain Services (products for facility protection, awarded October 2024 and December 2024), and Triad National Security on Los Alamos National Laboratory management and operating services (laboratory and scientific equipment, awarded April 2024). Other notable subs involve Consolidated Nuclear Security (Y-12 National Security Complex materials handling), Alcyon Technical Services (NASA Glenn Research Center logistics task), and BL Harbert International (U.S. Embassy Nairobi design-build).

Point Security's award portfolio distributes across five principal NAICS categories: Security Systems Services (69 awards), Search, Detection, Navigation, and Guidance System Manufacturing (27 awards), Equipment Repair and Maintenance (23 awards), Irradiation Apparatus Manufacturing (22 awards), and Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing (20 awards). PSC coding reflects the same emphasis: Miscellaneous Alarm, Signal, and Security Detection Systems (75 awards) and Maintenance/Repair of such systems (39 awards) account for the majority of work. The portfolio shows Point Security as a mission-aligned security equipment provider without diversification into IT services, engineering, or logistics—pure hardware and hardware maintenance in the federal security infrastructure space.
