The U.S. Secret Service, under the Department of Homeland Security, intends to award a sole source contract to IdentiSys, Inc., located in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, for the acquisition of White House ID badges and associated supplies. This procurement, identified by solicitation number PR-26-USSS-1614 and NAICS code 323111, includes the purchase of thermal printers and various color-coded expiring badge parts. The requirement is being pursued as a sole source acquisition because IdentiSys possesses the necessary custom colors and the ability to integrate with existing Access Control hardware and software used within the White House Complex.
This notice serves as the sole synopsis for the requirement and is issued for notification purposes. While the government intends to proceed with IdentiSys, Inc., any interested parties capable of fulfilling these requirements must submit written evidence of their capabilities to Melissa Chabot by 11:00 AM EST on July 30, 2026. The submission of such information does not guarantee a competitive procurement, as the final determination remains at the sole discretion of the government. Performance of the contract will take place in the District of Columbia.

The U.S. Secret Service intends to award a sole source contract to Granite Telecommunications LLC for Starlink satellite data subscription services under FAR 8.4 and GSAM/R 538.7104-3(a), authorized by FAR Class Deviation 25-20, due to the absence of any viable alternative providers. The requirement is driven by the need to maintain uninterrupted, mission-critical connectivity for Tactical-IP BLEND Kits that are intricately integrated with Granite’s proprietary platform and API-driven services through the PEAKE portal. Granite is the only authorized federal provider for Starlink services under SpaceX’s restricted vendor framework, and switching providers would result in costly reconfiguration, operational disruption, and the invalidation of existing warranties and support agreements. The contract includes managed services for two 500GB and two 50GB monthly data plans over a 12-month period, along with a one-time activation fee, all delivered with 99.9% network availability and download speeds between 45–280+ Mbps. Performance is centered in Washington, D.C., with full support provided 24/7/365. No competitive solicitation is planned unless responses to this notice demonstrate capable alternatives, and the Government retains full discretion to proceed without competition. Responses from potential offerors must be submitted in writing via email to Melissa Chabot by 11:00 AM EST on June 29, 2026, and must include verifiable evidence of capability. The contracting office is located in Washington, DC, with JCGASTON as the contracting officer and no designated COR or COTR identified. Pricing details, contract value, and specific clauses are not disclosed, and no formal evaluation factors, packaging, or inspection criteria are specified beyond functional performance standards tied to system integration. The procurement does not involve physical delivery, and no socioeconomic, size, or certification data for Granite Telecommunications LLC is provided, as the justification rests solely on exclusivity and integration dependencies.
