JPEO-CBRND RFI-Rapid Analytical Measurement and Non-destructive analysis (RAMAN)

The Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Defense (JPEO-CBRND) is seeking information on handheld chemical analyzers that utilize Rapid Analytical Measurement and Non-destructive analysis (RAMAN) spectrometry. The analyzer should be able to detect chemical warfare agents, toxic industrial chemicals, and toxic industrial materials. Respondents are asked to provide technical documentation, experience supporting USG customers, and information on technology readiness level, manufacturing readiness level, and compliance with relevant acts. The key features of the analyzer include: • Utilization of RAMAN spectrometry • Ability to detect chemical warfare agents, toxic industrial chemicals, and toxic industrial materials • Complementing Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry and Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy spectrometers • Providing diverse, independent (orthogonal) technologies for chemical detection
