Security Support Services - Global Contract Bridge Extension

Private Security Companies (PSCs) contracted by the U.S. Government operate to support peace and stability initiatives in areas of armed conflict, post conflict, and comparable situations where military or other government security forces are unavailable, insufficient, or inappropriate. PSCs protect relief, recovery, and reconstruction activity from theft, extortion, vandalism, terrorism, and other unlawful activities.

Effective discipline, training, and oversight of the Government contracted PSCs build confidence in the local population, reduce the risk of civilians and civilian activities from becoming military targets, and support the restoration of the rule of law.
