Description: TSA requires a digital Law Enforcement Officer Flying Armed command platform that 1) enables verified law enforcement officers to create traveler profiles with TSA via a secure web site, notify TSA of upcoming flights, and instantly verify their status at the TSA checkpoint using a primary identification (e.g. driver’s license or passport), 2) enables TSA Supervisory Transportation Security Officers, using existing government issued mobile devices, to scan law enforcement primary identification at the checkpoint and receive an instant confirmation or denial of approval to fly armed, 3) enables real-time communication with law enforcement in a specific geo-location via text message, and 4) provides digital law enforcement officer flying armed geo-location dashboards, record keeping, and metrics. To address system security and operational mission readiness requirements, TSA requires the platform and its full capabilities be hosted, managed, and maintained in a FedRAMP High authorized Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) cloud solution/platform environment.
