The Department of Homeland Security, Customs and Border Protection, requires this equipment to detect illicit materials and radiological threats at land border crossings, airports, seaports, rail crossings, mail handling, and express cargo facilities. Varex Imaging Corporation is the Original Equipment Manufacturer and the only provider of these technically complex and high-value inspection and detection systems, which must be operational 24/7/365. No other service or equipment will meet the government's needs. The contract award will support the sustainment of this critical homeland security equipment. The prior contract was awarded to an unknown vendor for an unknown amount on 2024-08-31.
