HALO Maritime Defense Systems is the only known manufacturer of a commercially available / operational fully automated waterside security barrier compliant with the performance specification for Anti-Terrorism/Force Protection Boat Barriers dated 20090830. As the developer of the identified WSB, HALO Maritime Defense Systems is the only known source with the corporate knowledge, background, and experience to perform the necessary analysis, design, and development services to support the installation of their fully automated waterside security barrier.

In response to the USS Cole incident, various efforts have been conducted to identify available waterside security barriers. Requirements under N41756-10-C-3325 and FY15-DoN-RIF-SSP-01 as well as a Business Case Analysis have identified HALO Maritime Defense Systems as the only known manufacturer with a Commercial Off The Shelf, fully automated waterside barrier system in compliance with the performance specification for Anti-Terrorism/Force Protection Boat Barriers dated 20090830. Under N41756-12-C-4813, Halo Maritime Defense Systems conducted fully automated waterside security system tests in controlled environments that proved the minimum Government performance requirements for stopping power and resilience to load forces could be met. Additional testing was conducted in Norfolk, VA to verify the environmental readiness and applicability of Halo's fully automated waterside security barrier. Based on the efforts conducted thus far it is not in the Government's best interest to pursue an alternative fully automated waterside security barrier as duplicative testing would be incurred resulting in additional expense and delays. Further delays could result in additional loss of both Navy vessels and lives.
