DOE Awards Sole-Source Bridge Modification for Security Services at Idaho National Laboratory
IDAHO FALLS, ID – The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has awarded a sole-source contract modification to Montech, Inc. for continued Personnel Security Support Services. The firm-fixed-price award ensures the continuity of critical security operations at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL).
The contract modification, with an estimated value of $450,000, extends the period of performance from July 1, 2026, to December 31, 2026. This action serves as a bridge to ensure uninterrupted support while a competitive, long-term follow-on contract is solicited and awarded.
