DT-236A Radwatch Autobadger Re-Assembly with two (2) parts: Aquila ARM 1000 and Aquila AAM 1000

Notice of intent to award sole source: The U.S. Army Contracting Command-Redstone Arsenal intends to issue a sole source, firm fixed price contract for one (1) DT-236A Radwatch Autobadger Re-Assembly with two (2) parts: Aquila ARM 1000 and Aquila AAM 1000manufactured by Aquila Technologies, Inc. to the original equipment manufacturer, Aquila Technologies, Inc., 8401 Washington Place, NE, Albuquerque, NM 87113, (Cage Code: 0C1G3). The Contractor shall provide one (1) DT-236A Radwatch Autobadger Re-Assembly with two (2) parts: Aquila ARM1000 and Aquila AAM 1000. This equipment allows customers to reduce the manual labor to reassemble DT-236As before sending them back to the field. Presently, when a customer receives a DT-236A from the field, personnel manually separates each slide from each watch at a "Receiving Station." The slides are then manually loaded into a cassette that the Automatic Highly Capacity Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) Readers use as input. Presently, the

slides are inserted back into the empty dosimeter shells manually after the dose from them has been read. The ARM1000 inserts the slides back into the watch shells automatically. The Aquila AAM1000 is an ID reassignment machine to use after the OSL and FNTD reads, but before the watches are reassembled. The reassignment machine will accept a slide cassette as an INPUT stream. Automatic High Capacity OSL Readers use as input. The period of performance for the contract will be 120 days after receipt of order, or as otherwise determined by the Contracting Officer.
