Quick Summary
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has issued a Justification and Approval (J&A) to award a sole-source bridge contract to the incumbent, Federal Missions Solutions, LLC (FMS), for Program, Project and Mission Support Services (PPMSS). This interim action is necessary to prevent a lapse in critical services while the agency takes corrective action following a GAO protest and transitions to a new long-term contract award.
Scope of Work
The PPMSS requirement provides professional support to CBP’s Office of Facilities (OSF) nationwide. Services include a full spectrum of program and project management support required to:
- Plan, evaluate, and construct facilities.
- Sustain, maintain, and dispose of Program Management Office (PMO) projects.
- Manage real property for Border Patrol and Air & Marine (BPAM).
Contract & Timeline
- Type: Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (Sole Source Bridge).
- Incumbent Awardee: Federal Missions Solutions, LLC (FMS).
- Duration: Short-term bridge (Base period of approximately 3 days, Feb 1-3, 2026).
- Set-Aside: None (Sole Source).
- Published Date: February 10, 2026.
Rationale for Award
FMS is the only source capable of providing immediate continuity without a lapse in service. Key factors include:
- Personnel Clearances: Current FMS staff already possess the required Background Investigation (BI) clearances, which are time-consuming to obtain for new personnel.
- Mission Continuity: The bridge ensures support for BPAM real property projects remains uninterrupted during the legal stay/corrective action period resulting from a GAO protest.
Additional Notes
While market research indicates other firms may be capable of the long-term requirement, only the incumbent can satisfy the immediate need for continuity during the transition and protest resolution phase.
