AI Contract Overview

The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) plans to award a contract to enhance the Counter Smuggling Network (CSN), a project originally launched in 2008 to combat the smuggling of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) and nuclear materials through the Black Sea nations. This contract aims to develop a comprehensive warehouse of analytical tools and expertise that will enable DTRA to track potential smuggling routes, identify types and quantities of contraband, determine origins and destinations, and disrupt smuggling operations. The initiative intends to extend CSN’s reach beyond the Black Sea to include additional regions in Europe, Asia, and Africa, focusing on collaboration with local law enforcement strictly for information gathering and analysis rather than direct law enforcement activities. The anticipated contract, under full and open competition, carries a base period of performance from May 15, 2011, through May 14, 2012, with two one-year option periods to follow. The Request for Proposal was expected to be posted around mid-March 2011, with an award date targeted for May 1, 2011. The operations and contract management will be based out of Fort Belvoir, Virginia, with key points of contact including a Contract Specialist and Contracting Officer from DTRA. This effort falls under NAICS code 541990 and seeks to leverage sophisticated analytical capabilities to strengthen international efforts against the proliferation and illegal transport of dangerous materials.
