Remedial maintenance support is required on a twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week, three-hundred sixty-five (365) days per year basis. The approximately 403 lanes of CBP LPR and VC systems to be maintained are located at approximately 63 Ports of Entry (POE) throughout the continental United States (CONUS).

The requirement also includes modification/upgrade of the LPR system in order to read and process newly issued license plates. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals.
