E-MAIL: grif...@socom.mil, rom...@socom.mil. 66 -- The United States
Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) is seeking a one-man portable
non-developmental, Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) decontamination system
capable of neutralizing chemical, biological warfare agents and toxic
industrial materials from special operations ground, air, and maritime
platforms, equipment and cargo. This sources sought seeks responsible
potential sources and obtain information that fully explains vendors'
existing decontamination system. USSOCOM may award a contract to procure
approximately 60 systems along with required decontaminate.
Decontaminate replenishment quantities and repair parts have not yet been
determined. Vendor will be required to provide new equipment operation
and maintenance training classes at location TBD. Constraints: Required
Delivery Date is fifty-percent of quantities 30 days after contract award
and remaining fifty-percent 60 days after contract award. A lightweight,
man-portable system means one man must be able to carry and operate
system. System must be capable of autonomous operation in remote
locations without access to infrastructure support. Use an non-aqueous
decontaminate that detoxifies, chemical, biological, and toxic industrial
chemicals/compounds from special operations forces sensitive equipment
and platforms without the side effect of being degraded due to excessive
corrosion and moisture. System must decontaminate agents with greater
efficacy than current systems in the field like the M13 DAP and M17
Sanator. This system must weigh not greater than 30 pounds when loaded
with a supply of decontaminate. Request that any party interested
provide: a) a Technical Description of five or fewer pages; b) two
Summary Charts describing their decontamination system concept; c)
summarized decontamination test results against an agent matrix (indicate
organization that conducted/validated tests); and, d) a pricing and
availability listing for their product. Once more information is
available, we may request detailed estimate to provide operator and
maintenance training. The NAICS for this effort is 334513 and the small
business size standard is 500 employees. Format for the technical
description, summary chart, test results, and pricing list is Microsoft
Word/ Power Point and Excel. Program Management POC is LTC Lee Gazzano at
