- Science and Technology (S&T) is initiating the second Rapid Technology Application Program BAA to meet the expressed rapid technology development needs of emergency responders and internal DHS customers. The RTAP will facilitate a number of S&T?s goals, including: Fulfilling the expressed needs of emergency responders and internal DHS customers for rapid prototype technology developments; and Producing advanced technology prototypes 6-18 months after award of contracts. DHS S&T is soliciting white papers for the rapid prototyping of systems for Explosives Detection. More specifically, an explosives detection portal is being solicited and is captured by the following BAA Topic: Portable ? Trace-Level Explosives Detection Portal (Portable - EDP). To achieve the program goals, this Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) calls for rapid development of the technology listed above. Offerors are invited to prepare multiple white papers to address the above topic, given that each white paper offers distinctly different technical approaches. Upon review of the submitted white papers, the government may invite an offeror to submit a full proposal. Only invited proposals will be accepted for review. In this regard, white papers are mandatory. Important Dates and Times: White Paper Due Date is 12/20/2007 NLT 4:30 PM Eastern Standard Time. Notification of Evaluation of White Papers will be made on 1/22/2008. Full Proposal Due Date is 02/15/2008 NLT 4:30 PM Eastern Standard Time. (IMPORTANT: A Full Proposal will not be accepted unless a White Paper was received before the White Paper due date specified herein AND the Offeror was encouraged to submit a Full Proposal.) Notification of Evaluation of Full Proposals/Recommendation for Award will be made on 3/27/2008. NOTE: There is a registration process (see Section IV of the BAA). A Prospective Offeror must ensure that it will allow itself sufficient time to complete the registration and submission process.
