A Dark Day for CAS

On December 7th, 2010 the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey awarded contracts and agreements for several facilities. One contract was to supply unarmed uniformed guard services for JFK and LaGuardia Airports.

The winning bidder was FJC Security Services, Inc. The previous contract holder was Covenant Aviation and, as a parting gift, there is a pending breach of contract lawsuit from the local chapter of SEIU.

How much did the 1 million dollar settlement CAS paid, without admitting any wrong doing of course, influence the outcome of this awarded contract? One can only speculate.

  1. That really is a blow to Covenant. I wonder how Gerry Berry feels right now.
    What is the current status with CAS getting a contract with SFO, any updates?
    Why CAS couldn't offer their supervisors and managers a raise? This is 2nd year in a row. They seem like trying to save whatever money they can. So, don't count on getting a new pair of shoes from CAS next year. "Shrug, no budget!"

  2. Maybe it's a day that will live in infamy!

  3. I think the lack of a raise is due to TSA. They're not getting raises for a second year as well. Of course, CAS supervisors still got a nice bonus, but it was smaller than last year's bonus.
