Account requiredWhy it scored this way

New Requirement, No Contract
No incumbent. A new requirement means nobody is defending a position here, and no one has an insider’s head start on the scope.

Who to talk to

At the forecast stage there is no active procurement, so contact is welcome rather than restricted — this is the one window where a direct conversation is straightforwardly appropriate.

The Small Business Specialist is usually the better first call. Helping firms like yours find and compete for this work is their actual job, and they can tell you whether a set-aside is still under consideration.

Market intelligence

Account requiredWho wins this work, and what it pays

Comparable awards under NAICS 334511 at this agency — the incumbent, what they were paid, when their period of performance ends, and the real pricing distribution rather than the headline number. From public federal award records.

Statement of work, as posted

Based on previous Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and TSA efforts, TSA recognizes Computed Tomography (CT) screening technology as the most impactful capability currently available to address the rapidly-evolving threats at airport checkpoints. The purpose of this requirement is for the Contractor to provide TSA with Checkpoint Property Screening System (CPSS) units, simulators, program management, warranties, configuration management services, shipping, and installation.

Ask about the acquisition strategy

Ask whether a set-aside is being considered, which vehicle is planned, and whether the agency wants industry input. This is the question that can still change the outcome.

Open email
Ask to be notified on release

Ask to be added to any industry-day or notification list so you are not relying on catching the posting yourself.
