AI Contract Overview
The Federal Bureau of Investigation intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to Perimeter AI Inc. (dba Echo54) for the procurement of Echo-54 Indoor People Sensors valued at $72,000.00, under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, which permits non-competitive procurement when only one responsible source exists capable of meeting agency requirements. These sensors are critical for deployment at FBI Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama, and must integrate flawlessly with existing security and telecommunications infrastructure without any modifications to mounting brackets, wiring, or systems. Each sensor must mount directly onto the FBI’s standard octagon brackets, include built-in end-of-line resistors for electrical compatibility, match the precise detection performance of sensors currently in use, and feature a black cosmetic finish to maintain visual consistency across the installation environment. Market research has confirmed that no other vendor can meet all these technical, operational, and aesthetic requirements simultaneously without introducing risk, additional hardware, or retraining. The FBI has issued this notice not as a solicitation for competitive bids but as a pre-award notice to allow other potential vendors the opportunity to submit capability statements demonstrating full technical equivalence to Echo54’s product by the July 17, 2026 deadline. Submissions must be emailed to Justin Little, the Contract Specialist, and must conclusively prove compliance with all five mandatory criteria: direct mounting without modifications, integrated EOL resistors, performance parity, seamless system integration with no operational disruption, and the black color specification. Responses will be reviewed under the agency’s sole discretion, with no assurance of contract award or even evaluation if the requirements are not fully met. No formal contract clauses, line-item pricing, packaging specifications, or representations from the vendor are included in the notice, nor are any set-asides or socioeconomic qualifications applicable, as the procurement is strictly justified on the grounds of unique technical compatibility. The contract will be awarded only if no other entity can satisfy all requirements, and the delivery location is fixed at Building 7420 at Redstone Arsenal.

-Include built‑in EOL resistors,
-Match Echo‑54 detection performance,
-Integrate with existing Redstone systems without additional hardware, rewiring, or retraining,
-Meet the required cosmetic color (Black).
Only capability statements demonstrating full compatibility with existing infrastructure will be reviewed.
