The Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection (CBP) awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to Astrophysics Inc., a for-profit manufacturer of x-ray inspection systems and security screening equipment. The 6-year "Low Energy Portals" IDIQ contract has a potential value of $390 million and aims to procure non-intrusive inspection scanning systems for vehicles entering the United States. Astrophysics has already received an $82.1 million firm fixed price delivery order under this IDIQ to provide the low energy non-intrusive inspection systems, associated training, and maintenance support, with performance in City of Industry, California over a 10-year period. The original solicitation was issued in February 2021 and did not include any set-aside designations, seeking proposals for the establishment of multiple award IDIQ contracts to support CBP's Non-Intrusive Inspection program. The contracts will provide low energy portal equipment, operator booths, shelters, and logistical support services to be delivered over a 10-year period at land ports of entry within the United States.
