The CSA is comprised of the following states: Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Minnesota, New Mexico, Michigan, Ohio and Texas. The CSOs will be responsible for providing security officer services to safeguard FAA employees and FAA facilities. Some of the duties will include, but are not limited to, protecting United States Government property and assets from loss, theft, damage, unauthorized use, criminal acts, espionage, sabotage, and terrorism. The scope of the required services to be performed by the CSOs can be found in the attached Statement of Work (SOW). The SOW is subject to change if the FAA determines it is in its best interest to issue a solicitation at a future date. This service area includes locations within the continental United States (CONUS). Anticipiated set-aside type: Tiered Evaluation Process. For this procurement the tiered order of precedence in descending order is anticipated to be as follows: Small Businesses Other Than Small Busine Once offers are received, FAA will evaluate a single tier of offers according to the order of precedence specified in the SIR. If no award can be made at the first tier, the evaluation will proceed to the next lower tier until award can be made. If no award can be made at the first tier, offerors from the first tier continue on in the evaluation and are evaluated against offerors from each subsequent tier.

Related SIR announcement number, equirements description, and FAA specific (non-FAR based) AMS set-aside type are below in the SIR information. Initial SIR Information (693KA8-26-R-00003) 1. General The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Facility Security Team (FST) has a requirement for Security Officer (SO) services in several states throughout the continental United States under the National Security Officer Services (NSOS) Program. These services provide physical security safeguards for FAA employees, facilities, and United States Government property and assets from loss, theft, damage, unauthorized use, criminal acts, espionage, sabotage, and terrorism. This Screening Information Request/Request For Proposals (SIR)/(RFP) is for SO Services in the Central Service Area (CSA). A complete listing of facilities included can be found in the attached SIR documents. The Contractor must furnish all labor, supervision, materials, equipment, transportation, training, and management necessary to provide SO services in accordance with the stated requirements. The Contractor must implement all necessary scheduling and personnel and equipment control procedures to ensure timely accomplishment of all SO service requirements. 2. Contract Type and Period of Performance The resulting award will be an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with Firm Fixed Price (FFP) and Labor Hour (LH) Contract Line Items CLIN(s). The period of performance is one base year and four one-year options with SO services anticipated to begin on September 30, 2026. It is the FAA’s intention that any new awardee will have an initial two-month transition period from contract award to the start of security officer services. This does not represent a guarantee and the transition period may be greater or less than two months. 3. Nature of Competition This acquisition will involve the use of streamlined acquisition procedures employing best practices for competitive negotiated procurements as authorized by the FAA Acquisition Management System (AMS). The principle North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this effort is 561612 - Security Guards and Patrol Services. Adequate competition exists when two or more responsible Offerors, competing independently, submit priced offers that satisfy the Government’s expressed requirement. All responses to this SIR must follow all submission instructions found in the attached SIR documents. The FAA will not pay any costs incurred in the preparation or submission of any response to this solicitation. FAA uses the FAA Acquisition Management System (AMS) contracting regulations, not the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR). 4. Set-aside type: Tiered Evaluation Process. See FAA AMS Procurement Guidance T.3.2.2.3.B.7 at https://fast.faa.gov/docs/procurementGuidance/guidanceT3.2.2.3.pdf#nameddest=guidanceT3_2_2_3_B_7 For this procurement the tiered order of precedence in descending order is as follows: Small Businesses Other Than Small Busine Once offers are received, FAA will evaluate a single tier of offers according to the order of precedence specified in the SIR. If no award can be made at the first tier (Small Businesses), the evaluation will proceed to the next lower tier until award can be made. If no award can be made at the first tier, offerors from the first tier continue on in the evaluation and are evaluated against offerors from each subsequent tier. In accordance with (IAW) AMS Procurement Guidance T.3.2.2.3.B.7.a.(3), the CO must consider the tiers of small business concerns prior to evaluating offers from other than small business concerns. Offers from other than small business concerns will only be considered after the determination that an insufficient number of offers from responsible small business concerns were received.","origin":"extract"},"notice_type":{"code":"a","label":"Award Notice"},"schema_version":1,"solicitation_number":"693KA8-26-D-00017","place_of_performance":{"city":{"name":"Washington"},"state":{"code":"DC"},"country":{"code":"USA"}},"product_service_code":"S206"}],"due_at":"2026-05-19T18:00:00Z","due_date":"2026-05-19","closes_at":"2026-05-19T18:00:00Z","awardable":false,"dept_key":"d-069","dept_name":"TRANSPORTATION, DEPARTMENT OF","sub_key":"s-6920","sub_name":"FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION","office_key":"o-693KA8","office_name":"693KA8 SYSTEM OPERATIONS CONTRACTS","state":"DC","country":"USA","winner_key":"MNA3EF2HHKE5","amount":"84486423.50","linked_awards":5,"cancelled":false,"archived":false,"updated_at":"2026-09-16T17:40:17.704408Z","principal_notice_id":"8c4bbd0431274c1d8255a673f5f2065a","description":{"text":"Subject SIR has been awarded to VisionQuestion Solutions under contract 693KA8-26-D-00017 as noted in this announcement.
