The U.S. Department Homeland Security, Federal Protective Services (FPS), is conducting market research to identify small business contractors capable of providing Protective Security Officer (PSO) Services at various locations throughout Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota. PSO Services are defined in two categories: PSO Basic Services and Temporary Additional Services (TAS). PSO Basic Services are the permanent ongoing services pre-scheduled with monthly fluctuating schedules or any other services added up to any established maximums identified in the contract, and Temporary Additional Services (TAS) are services beyond the basic service requirements. TAS are the short term, non-recurring needs for service. The Federal Protective Service protects Federal facilities and those who occupy them by conducting law enforcement and protective security services and leveraging access to the intelligence and information resources of our network of Federal, state, local, tribal, territorial, and private sector partners. The FPS mission is to prevent, protect, respond to and recover from terrorism, criminal acts, and other hazards threatening the U.S. Government’s critical infrastructure, services, and the people who provide or receive them. FPS is seeking information from small business contractors who have performed armed PSO efforts in the last three years that were approximately 138,000 hours per year, either individually on one contract or in the aggregate on several contracts. Contractors must be fully licensed in Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota to perform this type of service.
