Description

The intent of this pre-solicitation notice is for informational purposes only. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Office of Procurement Operations (OPO), Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Acquisition Division (CWMDAD) intends to award a non-competitive, sole source, Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) contract to Bubble Technology Industries, Inc., 31278 Highway 17, Chalk River, Ontario, Canada, K0J1J0 to conduct the necessary research and development to complete the design, fabrication and testing of Capacitive Frisch Grid (CFG) needed to characterize Thallium Bromide (TlBr)-based Core Detector Modules (CDMs). This effort specifically builds upon and continues the previous program�s focus on developing TlBr as a revolutionary new detector material that is expected to have a transformational impact in helping to counter the threat of nuclear terrorism. The research is expected to culminate in delivery of CDMs and supporting characterization and test data that will support transitioning to CWMD�s THOR program which will develop prototype TlBr Radio-Isotope Identification Devices (RIIDs) for eventual commercialization. The performer shall conduct the necessary research and development to complete the design, fabrication and testing needed to characterize TlBr-based CDMs. The Period of Performance (POP) for the project is six (6) months. This notice of intent is NOT a request for competitive proposals; however, all responsible sources may identify their interest and capability to meet this requirement. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon response to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Any costs associated with providing capability information will be solely at the interested party�s expense. All responses must be submitted to the Government�s primary point of contact at the contracting office email addresses shown below no later than 19 August 2022, 5:00 P.M. EST.
