About this opportunity
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Office (CWMD) is issuing a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) to solicit Research and Development (R&D) proposals. This 5-year BAA will be used to quickly and efficiently identify, explore, and demonstrate new technologies and capabilities to prevent, protect against, respond to, and mitigate nuclear, chemical, radiological, and biological threats. Responses in the form of white papers and/or proposals will be requested for various Areas of Interest (AOIs) that will be released periodically on SAM.gov. The AOIs will detail the scope, evaluation criteria, and submission deadlines. Proposals will be evaluated on strategic impact, technical approach and implementation, and cost/price realism and reasonableness.
This BAA is open to all proposers, with no set-aside designation. The specific AOIs and Notice IDs will be posted on SAM.gov, and prospective proposers, including small businesses, are responsible for reviewing and adhering to the details in each AOI. The anticipated awards may take the form of FAR-based contracts or Interagency Agreements. The place of performance is Washington, DC 20528, USA.
