Quick Summary

The Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA) is soliciting proposals for Michigan Fingerprint Channeling services. This Small Business Set-Aside opportunity requires a vendor to digitize fingerprints and transmit them to the State of Michigan for Criminal History Record Information (CHRI) checks. The contract is a Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) award with a base year and four option periods, extending through December 2031. Proposals are due by April 23, 2026, at 03:00 PM Eastern Standard Time.

  • Electronically transmit prints and associated Personally Identifiable Information (PII) to the Michigan state repository.
  • Ensure complete responses, including "No Record" results and pertinent criminal history data, are received by the government.
  • Provide disposition, sentencing, supervision, and release details, including sealed records accessible by state agencies.
  • Act as a single point of contact for follow-up with the State repository.
  • Process bad prints by contacting the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) within one business day for correction or reprint instructions.
  • The work will be performed at the contractor's facility. Clarifications confirm that volume numbers and the process are for Michigan state-only background checks, with no FBI involvement.

Contract Details
