Description

The U.S. Army Soldier Biological and Chemical Command (SBCCOM) has a requirement to improve the capability of the Nuclear Biological Chemical Reconnaissance System (NBCRS). The requirement is to enhance the NBCRS' reliability to detect, identify, and map chemical agent surface contamination using non-contact detection with minimized operator oversight. ITT Industries of 2560 Huntington Avenue, Alexandria, VA 22303-1410, has submitted an "Unsolicited Proposal" involving a technology proposed to replace the existing sample-wheel based surface agent detection and identification device on the NBCRS. The Government is contemplating awarding a contract to ITT Industries. The developed technology must be ready for integration on the Interim Armored Vehicle Nuclear Biological Chemical Reconnaissance Vehicle (IAV-NBCRV) during field testing beginning in December 2001. The Government anticipates awarding on a Cost Sharing basis. See Note 22.
