Quick Summary

The Department of Homeland Security's Transportation Security Administration (TSA), through its SECURITY TECHNOLOGY office, has issued an Unrestricted solicitation (RFP 70T04026R7672N005) for Checkpoint Screening Equipment Deployment Services (SEDS II). This opportunity seeks a contractor to manage the full lifecycle of screening equipment deployment, installation, relocation, and removal at security checkpoints nationwide and potentially OCONUS.

Scope of Work

The contractor will provide comprehensive services for various screening technologies, including Advanced Imaging Technology (AIT), Walk Through Metal Detectors (WTMD), AT X-ray, Explosive Trace Detection (ETD), Bottled Liquid Scanners (BLS), Computed Tomography (CT) X-ray, Credential Authorization Technology (CAT), and Chemical Analysis Devices (CAD). Key services include:

  • On-site coordination, surveys, and design support.
  • Installation, relocation, and removal of screening equipment.
  • Program management, encompassing resource, risk, and quality control.
  • Site preparation, electrical and data infrastructure work, shipping, rigging, testing, and site restoration.
  • Adherence to Federal Travel Regulations (FTR), Section 508 accessibility standards, and TSA's Checkpoint Requirements and Planning Guide (CRPG).
  • Compliance with stringent cybersecurity policies, including DHS and TSA directives, NIST standards, and requirements for data privacy, personnel security, and Authorization to Operate (ATO).
  • Detailed packaging, physical protection, and cleaning procedures for equipment.

Contract Details

  • Contract Type: Single IDIQ with Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) or Time and Materials (T&M) Task Orders.
  • Period of Performance: Eight (8) year ordering period from the date of award. Bidders should assume an October 1, 2026, start date for pricing.

Submission & Evaluation

Proposals must be submitted via email, following detailed instructions for Volume I (Technical/Management), Volume II (Past Performance), and Volume III (Price). The evaluation will be based on a "Best Value" determination using a trade-off method.
