Description
SYNOPSIS: This Sources Sought Announcement is to assist the Joint Project Manager for Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear Protection (JPM CBRN Protection) to identify the availability and adequacy of potential sources for planning purposes only.
The Government requests that responses to this Sources Sought be submitted electronically to Melissa Smith [email protected] and Mikel Wismer [email protected] no later than February 14, 2025 by 5:00 p.m. EST.
DESCRIPTION: The Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) Defense and Joint Project Manager for CBRN Protection are seeking to obtain better knowledge and understanding of industry capabilities regarding drawcord and drawcord synching/locking solutions and production of fasteners and garment components. Current available components for Chemical Biological (CB) garments do not meet the unique requirements and design for optimal hood-to-mask interface integration and flame retardancy. Specifically unique drawcords and cord locking (flat vs. round, locking) mechanisms. The Advanced Systems for Protection and Integrated Reduction of Encumbrances Hood Mask Interface (ASPIRE HMI) Program is responsible for providing an interface solution between currently fielded CB ground masks and fielded and future CBRNE protective garments with drawcord closures.
The purpose of his Sources Sought Announcement is to solicit information on the current availability, developmental solutions, rapid prototyping/3D printing capability, and production status of prototype component solutions, specifically flat drawcords, flat (not rounded) cord locks and drawcord synching/locking components. Responses should discuss prototype solutions that can be integrated into government designed hoods with drawcord closures. Solutions will need to improve the interface between masks and suit hood to improve integration of HMI solutions to CB suit hoods by redu...
