A -- HPAC EFFECTS MODULE DEVELOPMENT POC Michael Richman, Negotiator, (703) 325-6671, Scott G. Morton, Contracting Officer, (703) 325-1200 The Defense Special Weapons Agency (DSWA) has a requirement to incorporate the various specific effects of nuclear, biological, and chemical insults to the human body into the computer-based DSWA Hazard Prediction and Assessment code. Specifically to be addressed are the modifications to the "straight-line" linear effects due to time-varying doses, vaccinations, pre-exposure to other environmental insults, MOPP gear, stress, and level of training and defensive posture of the insulted party. Effects will be calculated for civilian populations and low-level doses as well as for military populations at battlefield concentration exposures. The software developed under this effort will be integrated into the next release of the Hazard Prediction and Assessment Capability, a DSWA product currently in use world-wide by deployed military forces, DoD and DoE laboratories, academia, as well as numerous private sector enterprises such as commercial power plants. This effort has been set aside for small businesses(SEE Note 22). A SECRET security clearance is required. For further information contact Michael Richman at (703) 325-6671. Information on DSWA solicitations, already released, can be obtained by calling the DSWA Hotline at (703) 325-1173. As of 31 May 96, Acquisition Management has added "Procurement Opportunities" to the DSWA Home Page available on the World Wide Web. Information will include this synopsis and more.
