GST Awarded
$11.7 Million Under Transportation Security
Administration Contract for
Professional
Engineering and Logistics Support Services
(PELSS).
YARDLEY, PA –
OCTOBER 2010
Global Systems Technologies, Inc (GST) has been
awarded a task order to provide Configuration
Management (CM) and Integrated Logistics Support
(ILS) support to the Transportation Security
Administration (TSA). This task order has an
$11.7 million ceiling and was awarded for a
one-year base period with the potential for TSA
to exercise four additional option years.
This task order was issued under GST’s
Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ)
contract for Professional Engineering and
Logistics Support Services (PELSS). In April
2010, TSA issued two IDIQ contracts for PELSS
for a combined total ceiling price of $100
million. The PELSS contractors support five
programs at TSA: electronic baggage screening,
passenger screening, security technology
integration, advanced surveillance technology,
and air cargo.
GST President Achintya Bhattacharjee stated "GST
has been in security R&D and certification of
threat detection systems for many years. PELSS
now allows us to support multiple TSA programs
in the integration, deployment, and on-going
support of operational systems."
GST, a nationally recognized leader in aviation
security, has supported the Federal Aviation
Administration and the Department of Homeland
Security for over fifteen years. GST currently
supports Homeland Security R&D, testing of
explosives trace detection equipment, and
development-stage testing for next generation
passenger screening portals. Related products
developed and manufactured by GST include
explosive simulants and simulated IED training
kits used in training Federal Air Marshals and
Transportation Security Officers to identify
explosive threats. GST also has information
technology contracts with US armed forces.
GST supports contracts with Homeland Security,
the US Navy, Army, and Air Force from its
Yardley, PA headquarters and offices in Absecon,
NJ; San Diego, CA; Norfolk, VA; and Crystal
City, VA.
