The U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agency has awarded a series of firm fixed price delivery order contracts to American Science & Engineering, Inc. (AS&E), a manufacturer of security inspection equipment, under an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) valued at up to $160,701,813.66.
The contracts are for the maintenance, upgrade, and original equipment manufacturer support of AS&E's non-intrusive inspection (NII) equipment, such as x-ray and gamma-ray imaging systems used by CBP to inspect vehicles and cargo for contraband at the border. The work is primarily performed at AS&E's facilities in Billerica, Massachusetts and supports CBP's border security mission. The delivery orders have ranged in value from $23.6 million to $46.8 million, with performance periods typically covering one to two years. No set-aside designations were noted for these awards, which leverage AS&E's extensive experience providing advanced detection technologies and related services to various U.S. government agencies.
