HOMELAND DEFENSE (EMD)
Abstract
This project supports Engineering and Manufacturing Development of common analytical laboratory system capabilities to conduct on-site analysis of any unknown sample and test potential life-threatening substances. The effort included in this project is: (1) Common Analytical Laboratory System capability (CALS) The CALS will provide common analytical capabilities packaged to meet the specific CONOPS and mission of the gaining unit to detect and identify Chemical Warfare Agents (CWAs), Toxic Industrial Chemicals (TICs), Toxic Industrial Materials (TIMs) and Biological Warfare Agents (BWAs). Users of the system will include the National Guard Bureau, the Army 20th Support Command, the Army Medical Laboratory, the Air Force, and the Navy. There will be two variants of CALS, the Theater Validation Integrated System (TV-IS) and the Field Confirmatory Analytical Capability Sets (FC-ACS). The TV-IS is currently in the EMD phase, with proto-types built and testing that begins in February 2019 and concludes in FY2020. Theater Validation Integrated System (TV-IS) Variant - Army User - A lab with a high level of confidence in analytical results through the use of orthogonal (complimentary) technologies and an expanded analytical suite that employs multiple standardized ISO containers, which will be integrated onto one Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTV) and two trailers. Field Confirmatory Analytical Capability Sets (FC-ACS) Variant - Army, Navy, Air Force and NGB User - A transportable equipment subset that allows them to be loaded into transport cases and palletized if required. FC-ACS is post Milestone C and is not a RDTE funded part of CALS, it is in the production phase.
