No other sensors will meet the Government's testing requirements in order to minimize lab-to-lab variations and facilitate a verifiable, accurate, reproducible method of high energy calibration that consists of predictable components of both radiant and convected energy. Incorrect calibration coefficients may result in erroneous test measurements of flame resistant uniforms and ultimately lead to the use of unsuitable uniforms for a battlefield fire event scenarios posing a risk to life and limb of the warfighter. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) for this requirement is 334519 and the size standard is 500 employees. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS.
