AI Contract Overview

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s National Urban Security Technology Laboratory (NUSTL), under the Science and Technology Directorate’s SAVER program, is conducting market research through a Request for Information (RFI) to identify commercially available technologies used by emergency responders. The RFI targets five specific technology areas: Vehicle Ramming Barriers, Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET), Radioisotope Identification Devices (RIIDs), Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), and Drone as First Responder (DFR) systems. This effort is strictly for planning and informational purposes and does not constitute a solicitation, request for proposal, or obligation on the part of the government. No contract will be awarded based on responses, and the information gathered will be used to inform future assessments and publications to assist federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial agencies in equipment selection. Submitting entities are expected to provide detailed information on their products, including company details, technical specifications, operational use cases, limitations, and cost data through an online Qualtrics survey, which is the only accepted submission method. Emailed or physical submissions are not permitted. The response deadline has been extended to 4:00 PM EDT on June 30, 2026, through a series of amendments that also updated the point of contact to [email hidden] for all RFI-related correspondence. No formal contract clauses, evaluation factors, award criteria, or binding requirements are included in this RFI, and there are no mandatory representations, certifications, or socioeconomic declarations required from respondents. While vendors are encouraged to mark proprietary data as such to protect its confidentiality, any unmarked information will not be protected by the government. There are no packaging, preservation, marking, barcoding, or inspection requirements because this is not a procurement action; no physical goods are being solicited. Although the RFI references alignment with DHS Authorized Equipment List (AEL) codes to guide relevance, no technical standards or compliance thresholds are mandated. All data provided becomes government property, and no contract award or future solicitation is guaranteed as a result of this effort.
