Description

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is initiating an aggressive two-phase Systems Development and Demonstration (SD&D) program for antimissile devices for commercial aircraft. DHS will investigate directed infrared countermeasures (DIRCM) and other technologies to provide protection against man-portable air defense systems (MANPADS). This program is not intended to develop new technologies, but rather migrate existing technologies to the commercial airline industry. This notice introduces the DHS Counter-MANPADS Development Strategy and the release of a solicitation (located on http://www.fedteds.gov) and announces a Briefing to Industry. The Counter-MANPADS Special Projects Office (SPO) within the Department of Homeland Security intends to hold a Briefing to Industry on 15 October 2003 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel (1000 H Street NW, Washington, D.C., USA. 20001; Telephone: (202) 582-1234). Online conference registration information is available via the Internet website at https://www.enstg.com/Register/passthru.cfm?RT123=MAN30404 . This one-day briefing will include a program briefing followed by a question and answer session. The program briefing will include Counter-MANPADS SPO organization, introduction of key personnel, goals and objectives, schedule, funding posture, and contracting approach (Other Transactions for Prototyping) used for the DHS Counter-MANPADS solicitation. Attendees will be limited to three per company. Please see the previous synopsis (HSSCST-04-R-AR001) for further details http://www1.eps.gov/spg/DHS%2DDR/USCG/GACS/Reference%2DNumber%2DHSSCST%2D04%2DR%2DAR001/SynopsisP.html.
