    Amendment_1_Vendor_Questions_and_Answers_0001.pdf
    The primary objective of this procurement is to acquire security guard services for the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in Nevada. The incumbent contractor for this requirement is currently operating under contract number 140L0619C0036. There are no collective bargaining agreements involved. BLM seeks experienced security guards to patrol and respond to alarms at two locations: the NV State Office (NVSO) and the Palomino Valley Center (PVC). The NVSO requires armed guards during business hours and after hours for alarm responses, while the PVC needs guards for random patrols on weekends and holidays. The guards will use government-provided laptops and other equipment. The NVSO alarm response mandates armed guards to respond to activations, conducting foot and mobile patrols to mitigate potential criminal activity. For the PVC patrols, guards will perform two non-concurrent patrols within each 24-hour period on weekends and holidays. Licensing requirements specify an "Armed Private Investigator License Board Certificate," though the agency clarified that an "Armed Security License" isn't acceptable for this role. Potential vendors should pay close attention to the licensing requirements when submitting proposals. The RFP does not indicate contract details such as value or type, but does include key dates: vendor questions must be submitted by a specific date, and proposals are due shortly thereafter. BLM will evaluate proposals based on factors like technical approach, past performance, and price.
