Armed Protective Security Guard Service Throughout the State of Illinois   2

FPS AD has procured protective security officer services on a noncompetitive basis for up to five (5) months, July 1, 2025, through November 30, 2025, to allow time to award the competitive follow-on contract as well as to provide adequate time for transition. This action will result in a modification to extend the ordering period under the current contract to allow placement of a task order to continue critical PSO services in Illinois. Task order(s) will only be issued under this contract for the necessary length of time required, but not to exceed five (5) months. The current contract is set to expire on June 30, 2025. The follow-on procurement is currently in the award phase. As such, this extension will allow time to complete the award as well as provide an adequate transition period to the new effort for this requirement, and prevent a detrimental break in services given the vast geographical area, unique topography, and the wide array of PSO service duties to be performed ranging from roving patrols, manning of fortified positions, operating checkpoints, and providing the rapid deployment of armed security officers at disaster relief areas.
