About this opportunity
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) for Mobile X-Ray Inspection Vehicles to support its Small-Scale Non-Intrusive Inspection (NII) Program. The RFI seeks Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) mobile x-ray systems with dual view capabilities that can provide vertical and horizontal imaging, meeting specific ASTM F792-08 standards for image quality and penetration. Vehicles must have a gross weight rating under 9,500 lbs, automatic transmission, and meet strict dimensional requirements of 250" length, 96" width, and 98" height. Responses are due by March 14, 2025, at 11 A.M. ET and must be submitted via email to designated CBP contacts, including Acquisition Specialist Kaitlin Merli, Contracting Officer's Representative Bryan Currier, and Contracting Officer Aga Frys. This RFI is explicitly for information gathering and does not constitute a commitment to issue a Request for Proposal or contract.
The solicitation does not specify a specific set-aside designation and does not mention incumbent contractors. The RFI indicates a potential procurement range of 5-128 mobile x-ray inspection vehicles, with specific technical requirements including a minimum tunnel size of 39.4" x 39.4", operational temperature range from 32F to 120F, and radiation dose rates below 0.5 mR/hour at 2" from the cabinet surface. Additional technical specifications include advanced imaging capabilities for organic/metallic material discrimination, retractable awnings, and the ability to operate both driver and passenger side. The vehicles must support image archiving of 10,000 images, hard drive storage for 50,000 images, and use encrypted computer systems. While no specific award value is mentioned, the comprehensive technical requirements suggest a sophisticated and potentially high-value procurement for border inspection technologies.
