- THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE. Potential sources are sought to provide security for transportation in Arizona of bulk quantities of marijuana for destruction. Individuals working under this requirement shall be qualified to legally carry weapons and able pass a DEA background investigation, as well as have experience providing security for transportation of sensitive items. The work to be performed will be the loading of multi-ton quantities of marijuana at a secure site, providing protection and security enroute to the destruction facility, offloading multi-ton quantities of marijuana at the destruction facility, and providing security until all the marijuana is destroyed. The DEA contemplates procuring these services through Blanket Purchase Agreements, against which calls would be placed as transportation runs are required.

The contractor shall provide no less than six (and as many as ten) individuals to provide needed security each time a call is placed. DEA will provide a vehicle to transport the marijuana; however, the contractor must provide a security/follow vehicle capable of carrying four people, including the driver. Initial runs will be between locations in the Tucson, Arizona area and between Tucson and Nogales or Sierra Vista, Arizona. Additional locations ? including Yuma and/or Phoenix, Arizona - may be added at a later date. Interested parties should send a capability statement to Sarah Gorter of the Drug Enforcement Administration?s Office of Acquisition Management at sgorter@leo.gov or via fax at 202-307-4877. Submissions shall be no more than 10 pages, should indicate business size, and should be submitted by 3 PM on August 16, 2005.
