The Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is seeking to establish two multiple-award Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts for Large-Scale Fixed Systems, specifically Multi-Energy Portal (MEP) and Low-Energy Portal (LEP) systems. The objective is to replace aging technology at various Ports of Entry along the Northern and Southwest borders with modern systems capable of higher image quality, faster throughput, and improved threat detection. The scope of work encompasses the fabrication, integration, delivery, installation, and civil works, as well as image formatting, testing, verification, lifecycle support, and warranties. The contract includes a five-year ordering period and a five-year period of performance, with system delivery beginning within 60 days of order execution. This acquisition will be conducted via Full and Open Competition, utilizing a best-value award basis determined through a trade-off analysis between price and non-price factors. Non-price factors, including technical approach, management approach, and past performance, are significantly more important than price. Offerors may propose for both MEP and LEP systems or either individually. The formal Request for Proposal (RFP) is anticipated for release in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027, with awards planned for the second quarter. Requirements include strict adherence to OSHA, FISMA, and CBP design standards, and personnel must successfully complete T4 or T5 security vetting processes.
