AI Contract Overview
The Department of the Interior, acting through the National Park Service at Independence National Historical Park, has identified an urgent, sole-source requirement for FedRAMP-certified physical and video security trailers and associated software licensing to support 24/7 surveillance of the President’s House Site. This need arises from the installation of new historical interpretation panels mandated by Executive Order 14253, which has heightened security risks requiring continuous monitoring to safeguard park staff, visitors, and cultural resources during non-standard operations. Carahsoft Technology Corp. has been selected as the sole provider due to its exclusive ability to distribute Verkada, Inc.’s FedRAMP-compliant security solutions, which meet the stringent federal cybersecurity standards and are the only available option within the required timeframe. The contract will be awarded without competition under FAR 12.102(a) due to the absence of other capable vendors and the urgency of the mission, despite the acquisition falling under the simplified acquisition threshold. The procurement is classified under NAICS Code 334310 with a size standard of 750 employees and is not reserved for small businesses, as both the prime contractor and technology provider are other than small entities. This notice serves as a formal announcement of intent, not a solicitation, meaning no bids, offers, or quotations will be accepted in response to this document. Interested parties may submit capability statements via email to Brian McCabe at brian_mccabe@ios.doi.gov by July 22, 2026, at 12:00 Mountain Time, but such submissions will be reviewed only for potential future procurements and will not influence the current sole-source decision. The government retains full discretion to proceed non-competitively based on the justification provided, and no award will result from this notice. All communications must be submitted electronically, and no telephone inquiries will be entertained.
