Description

The City of Colorado Springs seeks a qualified security firm to provide two distinct airport‑related services: (1) aviation worker screening at a fixed checkpoint, and (2) ongoing security guard patrols throughout the terminal. The contractor must staff licensed security personnel, maintain TSA background clearances and SIDA badges, operate airport‑owned screening equipment, and deliver required training and record‑keeping. The contract is time‑and‑materials with a Not‑to‑Exceed ceiling, includes a base year plus up to four optional one‑year extensions, and requires compliance with extensive insurance, licensing, and performance‑metric requirements. • Aviation Worker Screening – 9 weekly hours, 2 qualified staff per event, equipment operation, setup/teardown billing, mandatory training and record retention. • Security Guard Patrol – 1 guard per 8‑hour shift, 7 days/week, with possible expansion via change orders; strict staffing KPIs and response‑time metrics. • Contractor must hold Colorado private‑security licenses (Class R or D), obtain SIDA badges, provide insurance (minimum $5 M CGL, $1 M WC/EL, $1 M auto, employee crime), and submit hourly rates via Appendix A.

Budget estimate

$200,000 – $300,000

No explicit contract ceiling is provided, but the scope suggests roughly 9 hours/week of screening (2 staff) plus 8 hours/day guard patrols (1 guard) – totaling about 3,848 staff‑hours per year. Assuming an average blended rate of $55 USD/hour (covering labor, overhead, and profit) yields an annual spend near $212 k. Adding equipment handling, training, and administrative overhead could push the yearly cost to $250‑$300 k. Over a potential 5‑year term (base year + four options), the total contract value might range from $1.0 million to $1.5 million.
