Request for Information: CPE CBRND Seeking Miniature Sensing Elements for Chemical and Biological Threat Detection

The U.S. Army CBRND is issuing a market‑research Request for Information (RFI) to identify miniature chemical‑ and biological‑threat sensing elements for the Low‑Intensity Persistent Chemical Sensor (LIPCS) program. Required capabilities include class‑based detection with sufficient specificity to reject urban and battlefield interferents, transduction and integrated components that meet strict limits on size, complexity, cost and power, and scalable manufacturing using ASIC techniques. Respondents must submit white papers, concept briefs, and technical insights that describe design feasibility, integration paths, operational readiness, sustainment strategies, estimated development timelines, scalability, cost drivers and risk factors. Submissions are to be entered via the JETT portal (https://jacks.jpeocbrnd.army.mil/JETT, “Respond to an RFI”) no later than Wednesday, June 17, 2026. This RFI is for information only; it does not constitute a solicitation, commitment, or guarantee of future contract award. The solicitation is classified under PSC 6665 (Hazard‑Detecting Instruments and Apparatus) and NAICS 541715 (Research and Development in Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences).
