About this opportunity

The Department of Homeland Security's Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Office seeks to develop a neutron generator exceeding 1011 neutrons per second with fast pulse times through Solicitation No. 70RWMD23R00000014 to efficiently perform high-quality scans of cargo in security inspections. Proposals will be evaluated based on strategic impact, technical approach, team qualifications, and management approach, with a deadline of November 1, 2023. Selection notifications are estimated for the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, with anticipated award by the second quarter of fiscal year 2024.

There is no set-aside designated for this opportunity. The NAICS code is 541715 and PSC code is R425. Awards may be up to $3.5 million over 40 months or $2.8 million over 28 months to improve existing sources. Work will primarily be performed at offerors' facilities in the United States, with occasional visits to DHS sites.
