JPM NBC CA is conducting the NGCD 1 AVCAD program (AVCAD), to fill known operational gaps in chemical detection. AVCAD shall detect, identify, alarm, and report the presence of aerosol and vapor chemical hazards, include a wireless remote alarm capability, and operate in both dismounted and mounted configurations. The AVCAD Performance Specification provides additional requirements.

The objective of this effort is to procure AVCADs for Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD), with the capability using options, to satisfy Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) and Full Rate Production (FRP) requirements. Contract requirements for the AVCAD include testing, program and logistic support, and delivery of technical data. Per section C.4.5, the Government may elect to require rework to resolve system hardware or software issues prior to additional customer testing.

There will be no "down-select" or future competition between contractors if more than one contractor is selected for award. The Government's intent is to award the EMD options for approximately two contracts. After that point, if successful EMD test results are obtained under multiple contracts, the LRIP and FRP options may be exercised under more than one contract. In this scenario (for example, two contract awards and successful EMD tests for both contractors), the Government reserves the right to either obtain all LRIP and FRP production items from a single contractor or to divide production options between contractors based on (i) price, (ii) sustainment cost, (iii) performance against the PSPEC and any mission requirements to maintain multiple sources of supply.
