Request for Information (RFI) for Joint Project Manager for Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Protection (JPM CBRN P) Autonomous Decontamination System (ADS)

The US Army is conducting a market survey to identify technologies for an Autonomous Decontamination System (ADS) that can leverage robotics/drones to support chemical and biological warfare agent contamination mitigation operations. The ADS should be capable of performing pre-wash, precision contamination mapping, decontaminant application, and post-wash functions. The system should be transportable by and potentially integrated with various military vehicles. The goal of the ADS is to reduce manpower and optimize resources required for decontamination operations while mitigating the risk of exposure of warfighters to Chemical and Biological Warfare Agents through robotic means. • The ADS should be able to conduct a pre-wash of a contaminated vehicle or equipment with water. • The system should be able to execute precision contamination mapping and apply decontaminant to areas requiring decontamination. • The ADS should be able to conduct a post-wash with water and a post-decontamination assessment using existing/fielded detector technology. • The system should be transportable by and potentially integrated with various military vehicles. • The ADS should be able to perform contamination mitigation operations autonomously, to include contamination mapping.
