About this opportunity
The U.S. Defense Health Agency is seeking to implement Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology to enhance the inventory management and biosecurity surveillance of Biological Select Agents and Toxins (BSAT). The primary objectives are to improve accuracy, efficiency, and real-time traceability, as well as implement physical security measures to prevent theft and loss. Key requirements include RFID hardware, software, tags, and related services that comply with industry standards and regulatory requirements. Interested parties are invited to submit responses to a Request for Information by April 17, 2024, providing details on their capabilities and relevant past performance.
This is an unrestricted procurement, with no set-aside designations. The applicable NAICS code is 334511 (Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing), and the corresponding PSC code is 6135 (Inventory Control Systems). No incumbents or current contractors are named. The budget or potential award value is not specified in the pre-solicitation notice.
Notice text
The primary objective of the RFID implementation project is to revolutionize the Biological Select Agent and Toxin (BSAT) inventory management system by enhancing accuracy, efficiency, and real-time traceability and physical security measures to prevent theft and loss of BSAT. The project aims to address limitations of manual counting which can lead to human error and delayed data access. This project will automate inventory counting through RFID technology, facilitating immediate visibility of stock levels and movements. Additionally, installing an RFID reader (with silent alarm) at the one Exit Control Point will alert the Physical Security Guards of potential loss or theft of BSAT. By integrating RFID technology with our existing DoD BSAT Database system and training staff on its operation, we expect to streamline operations, reduce manual errors and increase physical security measures ultimately leading to operational excellence, cost savings, and regulatory compliance.
