Professional Engineering & Logistics Support Services (PELSS) Bridge Blanket Purchase Agreement

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) issued a Justification and Approval for a sole-source, six-month bridge Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) awarded to Global Systems Technologies, Inc. (GST). This Firm-Fixed-Price agreement, designated under solicitation number JA-2026-01-1324, includes Cost Reimbursable CLINs for Other Direct Costs and carries an estimated value of $475,000.00. The bridge action ensures the continued delivery of Professional Engineering & Logistics Support Services (PELSS) for the TSA Security Capabilities office while the agency pursues additional procurement actions to address long-term organizational requirements. Work is performed in Springfield, Virginia, with a period of performance running from May 19, 2026, through November 18, 2026.

The scope of this bridge BPA covers system design, engineering, and integration, integrated logistics support, and acquisition and life-cycle management. Specific services include managing airport design packages, updating Planning Guidelines and Design Standards, evaluating Checked Baggage Inspection System designs, and providing technical support for Requests for Variance. Additionally, the contractor performs modeling and simulation for baggage systems, develops technical documentation for technology demonstrations, and provides human factors support for logistics planning. The requirement is classified under NAICS 541330 for Engineering Services and PSC R425 for Professional Support: Engineering/Technical.

This federal opportunity was published on June 3, 2026, by the TSA Office of Contracting and Procurement. While the overall BPA value is estimated, no funds are obligated at the agreement level; instead, funding is applied at the individual task order level. Administrative details and the formal rationale for the sole-source award are documented in the redacted PELSS Bridge BPA Sole Source Justification attachment. Siobhan J. Lawson serves as the primary point of contact for this action.
