Title: Prototype Biological Containment Isolation System (BCIS)
Response Date: 09 June 2026, 1700 EST
Issuing Office: U.S. Army Contracting Command-Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG), Natick Division, on behalf of the Joint Project Manager for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Protection (JPM CBRN P).
1. Synopsis & Core Requirement
The Government seeks prototype solutions for a Biological Containment Isolation System (BCIS) under the authority of 10 U.S.C. § 4022, Other Transaction Authority (OTA). The objective is to acquire a modular, field-installable kit to convert the existing USAF TMT60 positive-pressure tent shelter into a negative-pressure, multi-patient isolation system for managing patients with High Consequence Infectious Diseases (HCID).
At a minimum, proposed solutions must be able to meet the following critical threshold requirements:
Negative Pressure: -2.5 Pa (≈ -0.01 in. w.g.) differential
Air Exchange: ≥12 Air Changes per Hour (ACH)
Filtration: 99.97% efficiency for 0.3-micron particles
Compatibility: Must integrate with and be reversible for the standard TMT60 tent system
2. Acquisition Approach & Submission Instructions
This acquisition will be conducted as a two-step process with the intent to award multiple Prototype OTAs. This approach encourages participation from non-traditional defense contractors and small businesses.
Step 1: Solution Briefs: Interested parties are invited to submit a Solution Brief package. This initial submission consists of two files:
A Solution Brief (15-page limit) detailing the technical merit, credibility, feasibility, and innovation of the proposed solution. This brief must include a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost estimate.
A Supporting Data Package (no page limit) with evidence to substantiate all claims.
Step 2: Request for Solution Proposal (RSP): Select offerors will be invited to submit a full proposal.
All Solution Brief packages must be submitted via email to the Points of Contact listed below no later than the response date and time. Full details are in the attached CFS document.
