    The Department of the Air Force's Air Force Life Cycle Management Center intends to award a sole-source contract to Advanced Detection Technology (ADT) for the procurement of the LowCam VI110 Portable UVIS system with License Plate Recognition. This initiative aims to upgrade vehicle security inspections at Hanscom Air Force Base, specifically enhancing the 6 SWS Security Forces’ capabilities in screening vehicles entering restricted areas. The existing manual inspection method, which relies on handheld mirrors, lacks efficiency. In contrast, the automated UVIS system will expedite the inspection process, allow for image storage, and improve the detection of foreign objects by comparing previous and current images of vehicle undercarriages. The notice invites unclassified capability statements from interested vendors, although this is not an official Request for Quote or Invitation for Bid, and the Air Force indicates an expectation of sole-source procurement consistent with 10 U.S.C. 2304. This action underscores the need for specialized security equipment to bolster safety protocols at the installation.
