Non-Intrusive Inspection (NII) Common Integration Platform (CIP) Software

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is seeking a commercial off-the-shelf software solution for a Non-Intrusive Inspection (NII) Common Integration Platform (CIP) with Common Viewer (CV) capabilities. The procurement will provide a cloud-based software platform to integrate NII systems, particularly vehicle X-ray systems, with existing CBP IT infrastructure and law enforcement applications. Key contract requirements include facilitating data aggregation between NII imaging systems, providing a web-based viewer for analyzing X-ray images, and delivering technical support services. The evaluation will be conducted in two phases, with technical capability and past performance significantly more important than price. Potential offerors must submit Phase I proposals by January 22, 2025, with questions due by December 20, 2024, and the anticipated contract award date is April 1, 2025.

This is an unrestricted procurement under NAICS code 513210 (Software Publishers) with a small business size standard of $47 million. The contract will cover up to 250 annual software license deployments over five years at CBP ports of entry, with a base period from April 1, 2025, through March 31, 2026, and four additional one-year option periods. The primary place of performance will be CBP OIT offices in Ashburn, VA, with some travel required. While no specific set-aside is designated, there is a preference for HUBZone small businesses. The solicitation does not identify current contractors, but it indicates potential collaboration with NII system Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) including AS&E-Rapiscan, Leidos, Smiths, and Astrophysics. Travel costs are limited to a not-to-exceed amount of $25,000 annually, and the contract will be awarded on a firm-fixed-price basis.
