A -- RELOCATABLE PULSED FAST NEUTRON ANALYSIS (PFNA) CONTAINER INSPECTION SYSTEM (CIS) SOL DAAD05-96-R-0035 DUE 070896 POC Contract Specialist David K. Hart (410) 278-0878 (Site Code DAAD05) The U.S. Government has an existing contract with Science Application International Corporation for non-intrusive inspection technology in the interdiction of illicit drugs hidden in cargo containers utilizing Pulsed Fast Neutron Analysis (PFNA). The U.S. Government presently has a requirement to develop and test a Cargo Inspection System (CIS) that can be relocated at various sites (e.g. high threat areas, ports of entry to inspect within a reasonable deployment time the contents of containers, trucks, and cars for concealed target substances including explosives, hazardous chemical and nuclear materials. The Government anticipates a three phased approach for this effort to include Phase I which is physics and engineering analysis, Phase II which is the detailed engineering design fabrication and testing of a full scale transportable system and Phase III which includes installation, integration and test of a relocatable PFNA CIS in a selected testbed. The Government intends to negotiate solely with SAIC on the above cited effort. See Note 22. (0136)
