These services are being procured in order to 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 Offer (SIR)/(RFO) is for Security Officer (SO) Services for five (5) Southern Sites in the Eastern Service Area (ESA). A complete listing of included facilities 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 Firm Fixed Price Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (FFP IDIQ) with four Time and Material (T&M) Contract Line Item (CLINs), one Cost Reimbursable (CR) CLIN and a Not to Exceed (NTE) CLIN. The period of performance is one base year and one option year with security officer services anticipated to begin on September 30, 2020. It is the FAA's intention that any new awardee will have an initial two month transition period prior to the security officer services start date. 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. With the exception of joint ventures, all business classifications are encouraged to submit offers for this SIR. Adequate competition exists when two or more responsible Offerors, competing independently, submit priced offers that satisfy the Government's expressed requirement.

The FAA will only recognize one Prime Contractor per FAA Service Area (ESA, CSA, WSA) or subdivided Service Area. The National Security Officer Contracts are traditionally divided into three Service areas, but may be divided into subdivisions in order to provide best management of large service areas. 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. 4.
