Analogic Snags TSA Contract For Next Round Of Checkpoint CT Systems

摘要

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) last Friday awarded Analogic a potential $198.4 million contract to provide advanced scanning systems used to screen carry-on bags at passenger security checkpoints at U.S. airports. The Aug. 27 award notice published in the government procurement site Sam.gov said the contract is for the mid-size variant of the Checkpoint Property Screening System (CPSS) computed tomography (CT) scanners, window 1, increment 1. For CPSS mid-size, Analogic will supply its ConneCT CT systems, powered conveyors for CT ingress and egress, an automatic divert capability to send suspect bags to a secondary screening area, primary and alternate viewing stations, and the bins. Increment 1 refers to the explosives threat detection standard.
