Unarmed and Uniformed Security Guard Services

The United States Department of Energy, through its national laboratory site in Lemont, Illinois, requires unarmed and uniformed security guard services to provide protective force services. The laboratory needs these security personnel to manage site access, which includes handling badging, identification, and credentialing requirements. The selected provider must also deliver related services, including private detective, private alarm, private security, fingerprint vendor, and locksmith capabilities. The laboratory requires all security personnel to meet specific security clearance requirements to perform their assigned duties. Personnel who need access to controlled areas must comply with laboratory escort requirements as directed by the agency. Additionally, any personnel requiring access to laboratory business systems, training systems, reporting systems, or security systems must comply with strict laboratory information security requirements. The agency limits eligibility for this opportunity to organizations based onshore within the United States. While the protective force services secure the physical national laboratory site, the agency indicates that performance of the work will be offsite. The agency is currently looking for proposals to establish the budget and has not disclosed a pre-determined funding limit or specific evaluation criteria and key dates in the initial solicitation details.
