SECTION I – Supplies or Services and Pricing/Cost
Type of Contract
This is a Multiple Award Firm Fixed Priced Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract for Personal Radiation Detectors (PRD) to be established with Offerors at a minimum of 3 and maximum of 5 PRD awards. This contract will be issued in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items.
Contract Term
The term of the contract(s) will be a five-year ordering period.
1.1 Contract Coverage
The purpose of the contract is to provide DHS with the ability to purchase PRDs, accessories and training courses, including Operator/User, Train-the-Trainer, and Maintenance technician training.
1.2 General Description
The contractor shall supply devices as described in Section II.
1.3 Contract Minimum/Maximum
(a) It is anticipated that up to 14,000 PRDs will be procured annually. The minimum guaranteed amount for each IDIQ contract awardee is 10% of every annual PRD buy at the task order level.
(b) The specific products and quantities will be identified on each Order. The Government has no contractual obligation to issue Orders beyond the guaranteed minimum specified in paragraph (a) above.
(c) The total quantity of all Orders awarded, including orders issued and minimum contract amounts shall not exceed 70,000 PRD units. The cumulative value of all orders placed under all multiple-award IDIQ contracts shall not exceed an amount determined at time of IDIQ contract award over the course of 5 years.
Competition will be promoted to the maximum extent practicable through full and open competition.
However, the Government is reserving the right to make an award to a small business concern, that is deemed capable of meeting the requirements, identified at 19.000(a)(3) eligible for participation in accordance with FAR 52.219-31 Notice of Small Business Reserve and FAR 52.219-32, Orders Issued Directly Under Small Business Reserves. The initial competition will establish a multiple award IDIQ contract with a minimum of 3 and maximum of 5 PRD contract awards, with awards being made on the
Personal Radiation Detector (PRD) Request For Proposal Section I – Supplies or Services and Price/Cost
Best Value Tradeoff method. If only one small business that manufactures PRDs respond to the RFP and is deemed capable of meeting the requirements, the Contracting Officer reserves the right to directly award an IDIQ contract to the Offeror without competition. If two or more small business Offerors that manufacture PRDs and that are deemed capable of meeting the requirements, submit proposals, these proposals will compete for one small business reserve IDIQ contract with award being made to the Offeror who represents the best value to the Government. The remaining small business Offeror’s proposal will be competed along with the other large businesses for the remaining 2-4 IDIQ contract awards. If none of the small businesses are deemed capable of meeting the requirements, the Government will award IDIQ contracts to large businesses capable of meeting the requirements.
It is the Government’s intent to hold annual task order competitions, one each year, and split the total annual quantity among all of the IDIQ awardees. At the task order level, each IDIQ contract holder will be guaranteed a minimum of 10% of the annual PRD buy with larger percentages given to Offerors with the lower priced proposals. After the initial task order, each subsequent year all IDIQ holders will be given an opportunity to submit discounted pricing for that year’s task order to capture cost/price reductions. Prices at each quantity cannot be increased from what is identified in the contractors IDIQ contract, only lowered or remain the same. The specific products and quantities will be identified on each Order. The Government has no contractual obligation to issue Orders beyond the guaranteed minimum of 10% of the annual PRD buy.
1.4 Contract Pricing
Firm Fixed Price (FFP) orders will be placed under the resulting multiple award contract. The fixed unit prices on which orders will be based are contained in Attachment 2, IDIQ Pricing Template.
1.5 Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) Structure

Personal Radiation Detector (PRD) Request For Proposal. Section II – Description/Specifications/Statement of Work
SECTION II – DESCRIPTION / SPECIFICATIONS / WORK STATEMENT
INTRODUCTION
2.1 Background
The Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD) Office is an agency within the Department of Homeland Security. The CWMD Office is responsible for coordinating with other Federal efforts and developing a strategy and policy for the Department to plan for, detect, and protect against the importation, possession, storage, transportation, development, or use of unauthorized chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear materials, devices, or agents in the United States and to protect against an attack using such materials, devices, or agents against the people, territory, or interests of the United States.
2.2 Mission and Objectives
The CWMD Office is the primary entity responsible for procuring radiological/nuclear detection systems for DHS; coordinating the development of the Strategic Plan across Federal, State, Territorial, Tribal, and local stakeholders; and executing the Implementation Plan for expanding the prevention, detection, and identification capabilities.
2.3 Mission Need
CWMD has a total potential requirement for up to 140,000 Personal Radiation Detectors (PRD) over 10 years in support of State, Tribal, Territorial, Local and other federal agencies. This RFP covers Phase I (FY20-FY25) of the 10-year procurement period. It is anticipated that a total of 70,000 PRDs will be procured in Phase I with up to 14,000 PRD devices procured annually.
PRDs automatically monitor the environment and alert the user when radiation levels above the background are detected. PRDs also assist the user in localizing the source of detected radiation. The high sensitivity and rapid response time to the variations in the ambient radiation levels clearly distinguish PRDs from the family of electronic dosimeters which are mainly used for accurate dose and dose rate.
2.4 Specific Requirements/Tasks
2.4.1 Personal Radiation Detectors
The contractor shall provide a Commercially Off the Shelf (COTS) PRD meeting the requirements in Attachment 1(Requirements), to include at least a two-year warranty, and any ancillary support equipment (to include, but not limited to, power cable, sync cable, user manuals, and software).
