About this opportunity
The Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is seeking industry feedback through a Request for Information (RFI) regarding Relocatable Passenger Vehicle Scanning Systems (RPVSS) utilizing low-dose x-ray technology for non-intrusive inspection at ports of entry and border checkpoints. This RFI is solely for information-gathering purposes and does not constitute a formal solicitation or commitment to award a contract. The systems must be capable of scanning 150 vehicles per hour while allowing drivers and passengers to remain in the vehicle, and must operate across a wide temperature range from -30°C to 50°C while providing advanced image analysis, material discrimination, and license plate reading capabilities. CBP is requesting that vendors provide focused, actionable feedback on the draft requirements documents, specifically identifying technological limitations, unclear specifications, or areas that may unnecessarily restrict newer technologies. The RFI response deadline is November 3, 2025, with submissions required in MS Word or Adobe PDF format directed to contracting officer Aga Frys; respondents should note that the government will not provide individual feedback on submissions and will not reimburse any costs associated with preparing RFI responses.
This opportunity carries no set-aside designations and involves no identified incumbent contractor. CBP intends to procure a base year quantity of thirty (30) scanning systems with a contract performance period beginning June 1, 2026, with potential option periods allowing for additional purchases of up to twenty-five (25) systems in Option Period One and fifteen (15) systems in each of the three remaining option periods, representing a potential total of one hundred twenty (120) systems across the contract term. The contract will include provisions for system installation, operator training, comprehensive maintenance support, and a minimum one-year failure-free warranty covering both scanning system and mobile platform components. While specific award values have not been disclosed in the RFI documentation, the substantial quantity requirements and advanced technical specifications suggest significant contract value potential. The systems are classified under NAICS 334517 (Irradiation Apparatus Manufacturing) and PSC 6665 (Hazard-Detecting Instruments and Apparatus), indicating the specialized nature of the required technology and engineering capabilities.
