- Description
- This is a SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE; there is no solicitation available at this time. No response will be provided for requests for a solicitation. THIS SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE IS PUBLISHED FOR MARKET RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY. The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) seeks potential sources for the development of an automated system for Radiological Sample Analysis to create unique spectral ?fingerprints? for material(s) that have the potential to be used in Improvised Nuclear Devices (IND) and Radiological Dispersion Devices (RDD). The goal of the automated system is to use analytical techniques in a closed-loop system to analyze samples (field and/or fixed laboratories) in hours, rather than days. The system will aid in the Nuclear Forensics Attribution Program. The system will perform total dissolution of the sample, chemical / radiochemical separation, and isotope analysis in last than 24 hours. The system must be able to communicate with Technical Reachback Support Directorate. The Technical Reachback Support Directorate serves as the primary point of contact for situational awareness through the Joint Analysis Center and the Nuclear Assessment Program. The system should be inherently simple to operate, survivable, durable, multi-functional and easily transportable by air and truck. As part of its survivability, the system needs to be able to operate in a radiological contaminated area with reasonable protection and able to be decontaminated. Sources sought responses shall reflect corporate information and a capability summary reflecting experience related to the above areas. Responses are to be limited to no more than five pages. Company information should include qualifications and experience in work of this nature, point of contact, phone number, fax number, e-mail address, CAGE code, DUNS Number, business size, and small business classification (8(a), HUBZone, etc.), if applicable. Any information submitted in response to this Sources Sought Notice is strictly voluntary. This synopsis is for information planning purposes and the Government will not pay or otherwise reimburse respondents for information submitted. Responses shall be submitted no later than 2:00 PM EST on August 17, 2007. Electronic responses shall be submitted to Ms. Sae-Jin Yu at Sae-Jin.Yu@dtra.mil. All documentation shall become the property of the Government. Unless otherwise stated herein, no additional information is available. Requests for the same will be disregarded. There is no commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation, to make award or awards, or to be responsible for any monies expended by any interested parties in support of any effort in response to this Sources Sought Notice. Information provided herein is subject to change and in no way binds the Government to solicit or award a contract.
