Type and Scope of services to be performed:
The Intergovernmental Agreement in the form of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Denver International Airport (DEN) and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), which allows for the transfer of ownership (donation) of security screening equipment to support 17 lanes for the new Level 6 West Security Checkpoint, opening in Q1 2024 as part of Phase 2 of the Great Hall Program. The transfer of ownership and MOU is a common practice at U.S. airports and will allow DEN to accelerate the deployment and use of the new equipment subject to the criteria discussed in this MOU. To accelerate the deployment of the new equipment and ultimately the opening of the West Security Checkpoint, DEN purchased all the TSA security equipment for the checkpoint through TSA’s Capability Acceptance Program. As a requirement of the Capability Acceptance Program, DEN is required to meet several key criteria:
1. The equipment must meet TSA requirements and be on the Acceptable Capability List. This ensures that equipment across all U.S. airports meet TSA’s security standards.
2. DEN must donate the equipment to TSA who operates the checkpoint and all security screening equipment.
3. DEN must pay for a four-year maintenance agreement after install.
TSA determined that DEN met the above criteria, and the execution of this MOU is required for TSA to accept the donation of the new security equipment.
