AI Contract Overview

The contract seeks to acquire commercially available Hand-held Radiation Isotope Identification Devices (RIIDs) intended for use by border screeners and First Responders to detect, locate, and identify radioactive sources and materials, particularly for interdiction of illicit trafficking. These devices must be rugged, weather resistant, battery powered, and capable of rapid and accurate nuclide identification as well as measurement of X-, gamma, and neutron radiations, with an additional preference for dosage rate measurement capabilities. Compliance with the ANSI N42.34 standard for performance criteria is mandatory, and vendors must submit certified independent test reports demonstrating adherence. In cases of conflicting requirements between the solicitation and the ANSI standard, the more stringent criteria will take precedence, with the procuring agency retaining discretion over acceptance of any variations. Additionally, vendors are requested to provide detailed information about the warranty coverage for the RIID devices, including the cost and terms of a one-year extended warranty and the warranty service procedures applicable in Jordan. The solicitation also seeks input regarding suggested training for users in Jordan, including costs, duration, content, and any special requirements. Responses to this market survey were due by January 8, 2010, with the procuring office located at the Department of Defense facility in Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland. The acquisition aims to ensure that the devices supplied meet stringent operational and environmental standards to support reliable radiation detection in challenging field conditions.

Full Description

Hand-held Radiation Isotope Identification Device (RIID) This Solicitation is for the acquisition of a commercially available Hand-held Radiation Isotope Identification Device for the detection, location, and identification of radioactive sources and materials by screeners at border crossings for interdiction of illicit trafficking, and for First Responders' usages. The RIID shall be ruggedly constructed for extended field usages, weather resistant, battery powered, and able to provide rapid location and accurate identification of radioactive nuclides, and emission measurement of sources in X-, gamma, and neutron radiations. Additional capability of dosage rates measurement is desirable. The RIID device shall passed, at minimum, the performance requirements and testing specified in ANSI N42.34 American national Standard Performance Criteria for Hand-Held Instruments for the Detection and Identification of Radionuclides. [The potential providers of the RIID devices under this solicitation shall include certified test results/test reports by a certified independent testing laboratory to demonstrate compliance to the ANSI N42.34 Standard. Requirements cited in the Standard and herein shall be considered complimentary. If any criterion specified herein is in variant or otherwise interpreted as contradicting to the above cited Standard, the more stringent requirement of the two shall govern. It is the discretion of the procuring activity to accept or reject any variations between the requirements stated herein and the product specifications of RIID submitted for consideration under this solicitation.] Required SALIENT CHARCTERISTICS for the RIID: The Salient Characteristics are being provided on the attached document as there are many symbols used that are lost when you do a cut and paste. Additionally, we would like to know what warranty is included, the cost and details of a one year extended warranty, and the procedure to utilize the warranty from Jordan. Does the vendor suggest training for the item? If they do, the cost of training in Jordan, duration, what the training will consist of and special requirements. All responses to this Market Survey should be received, NLT, 8 Jan 2010.
