THIS SOURCES-SOUGHT NOTICE IS PUBLISHED FOR MARKET RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY. The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) is seeking capabilities statements related to the following: The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) executes and provides mission support to multiple treaties, agreements, and treaty provisional secretariats to which the United States is a party or other type of participant. Such treaties include the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START), International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) agreements, the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC), and the Provisional Secretariat of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT). Because of the constantly evolving nature of treaty monitoring and verification policy, ongoing RDTE is required to ensure that the United States is prepared to execute its current and future monitoring and verification missions. Particularly relevant for detecting underground nuclear explosions are unreactive but fission-produced radioactive noble gases. DTRA desires to leverage its unique capabilities and expertise in verification and validation of test ban treaty monitoring, nuclear deterrence support, and research and development to contribute toward these goals with the application of atom-trap trace analysis (ATTA) for monitoring purposes. The scope of this sources-sought requirement includes advanced RDTE specific to optimizing ATTA techniques and increasing system efficiency.
