About this award

Written by GovTribe AI · Dec 16, 2025

The U.S. Army Communications Electronics Command (CECOM) awarded a 36-month Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) contract valued at $3.98M to Chemring Sensors and Electronic Systems, Inc. (CSES) on September 25, 2015, with an ultimate completion date of September 24, 2018. The contract supports the development and advancement of handheld detection technologies for warfighters, specifically addressing threats from landmines, deeply buried metallic and non-metallic improvised explosive devices (IEDs), and triggering mechanisms including non-metallic conductive components and wires. CSES, a Charlotte, North Carolina-based manufacturer specializing in advanced detection systems for chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive (CBRNE) threats, will perform the work at its facility in Fredericksburg, Virginia.

This contract was awarded without a set-aside designation, reflecting CSES's competitive positioning within the defense procurement marketplace. The award represents a continuation of CSES's established role as a key supplier of sophisticated detection and electronic systems to U.S. military and defense agencies. The handheld detection systems developed under this contract are intended to deobligate funding for existing systems while providing enhanced capabilities against a wide range of explosive hazard threats, supporting critical force protection objectives for military personnel in theater operations.
