About this opportunity
The United States Secret Service (USSS) awarded a sole source contract to Rapiscan Systems for a Rapiscan-Z Portal X-ray Inspection System used at the Truck Screening facility on Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling. The contract covers specialized X-ray backscatter imaging system components, including the Z-Portal, UVSS, ISOL Transformer, TSA-VM250 RAD Portal, LPR, Vehicle Pusher, Operator Booth, and associated canopies. Rapiscan Systems is the exclusive manufacturer of this proprietary technology, holding over 30 patents for its unique "Flying Spot Pencil Beam" imaging system, which is critical for screening cargo destined for high-security locations like the White House Complex and Department of Treasury. The sole source justification is based on Rapiscan's exclusive ability to service the equipment without voiding warranties, and the system's proven 30+ year life cycle when properly maintained. The previous contract period ran from 01/21/2020 to 01/20/2025, with the new contract (70US0925C70092970) awarded on 01/22/2025, though the total contract value remains redacted.
