Getting the facts straight ~ regarding PSID..

It appears you have good intentions ~ but most seem to be questioning your opinion ~ even your own website links seem to be in contradiction of the actual facts concerning PSID..

The information you're website link is referring to, is from (June 2007) The program was kicked off in 2007 and said to be scheduled for testing in 2008 with completion of the whole program between 2009 and 2012.

It Says, "BioWatch 3 is expected to be pilot tested in fiscal year 2008 and fully deployed between fiscal years 2009 and 2012."

However, this official time frame testing never happened, during the lime line, as was first projected by the government's DHS.

The government's Department of Homeland Security kept postponing it, from occurring, each and every year, until allowing their Final Draft Request For Proposal Competition Testing, for Stage 1 Performance Testing, and Stage 2 Operational Testing, to start proceeding forward, as the first stage is doing, now.

Rob you are right BUT also wrong! This is a WHOLE NEW PROCUREMENT! Yes you are correct we are in Phase II, however we are at stage I. My wife suggest we ALL need to talk less and read MORE! Lol

The GREAT News is that we are VERY close to the DHS releasing of the FINAL RFP!! I beleieve that by the 2nd week of March at the latest! Could happen MUCH sooner guys! JMO

After RFP is released than we can expect a contract award being issued for multiple contracts for a firm fixed amount, as well as cost re-imbursement! This should imo happen within 2-4wks after RFP!

Also there just might not be an industry day, if so it will be just a formality, just as with the DRFP! Will NOT have any significance at all per my wife! She was confident in saying that RFP could be released at anytime! Gotta run guys hope this helps! Don't STRESS remain PATIENT we are VERY close my friends!

My wife from her experience working for DoD for MANY years says with the UPMOST CONFIDENCE that PSID hands down will be chosen for 1 of the multiple contract awards being awarded in STAGE I!

Her final conclusion is that PSID like Coca Cola is a stock you don't eat on or have to pay your rent with! What she means is IT is going to happen, but be able to pay your bills in the meantime! Remember it is a LONG GREVIOUS process anytime you are dealing with our GOV!!

I once again think it is sooner than later! Gotta run take care everyone! MBD

I think the last post by Bull Investor clears it up accurately in stating that we are still in that 18 month waiting game which will begin after June 30th.

I read both links again and came to that same conclusion.

Performance-testing for the current-BioWatch-Gen-3 solicitation is 18 months, during the first stage of the competition.

The procurement for BioWatch Gen-3 Phase II will occur in two stages, DHS said.

The first stage involves performance testing of proposed biodetector systems competing against each other.

The period of performance testing for the current BioWatch Gen-3 solicitation is only 18 months, during the first stage of the competition.

The second phase, of the competition, involves operational testing and evaluation as well as production, deployment, sustainment and disposal.

DHS will only be making final one award for the second-stage of the BioWatch Gen-3 Competitive Down Selection.

Hopefully, PSID will be chosen as the one, and only winner during this Final Request For Proposal Phase of The Competition..

DHS asked interested companies to submit questions on the draft RFP by Feb. 11

Consulting firm Deltek, Herndon, Va., listed BioWatch Gen-3 as the only DHS program in its top 20 federal opportunities for contractors in fiscal year 2013. BioWatch Gen-3 represents a potential $3.1 billion value over five years, according to Deltek's estimates.

The DHS Office of Health Affairs runs the BioWatch program in partnership with the Environmental Protection Agency, the FBI and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

http://www.hstoday.us/focused-topics/information-technology/single-article-page/more-info-on-biowatch-3-revealed-in-draft-solicitation.html
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PositiveID has clearly stated the specific timeline information for the BioWatch Generation 3, stage 1 performance testing phase, in their February 6, 2013 PositiveID Reports Issuance of Draft RFP From Dept of Homeland Security for BioWatch Generation 3, if you read it very closely.

It Specifically Says,
"The final RFP for Stage 1 is expected to be released in the government's third quarter of fiscal 2013, which ends June 30th."

"The Stage 1 contract is expected to have a performance period of 18 months. The full roll-out of BioWatch Generation 3 is estimated at $3.1 billion over the next five years."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Information which was published by PositveID for investors and to whom it may concern.

Clearly indicates and specifys that the BioWatch Generation 3 final Request For Proposal for stage 1 performance testing phase is going to be released, sometime, in the government's third quarter of fiscal 2013, which ends June 30th.

Once that event takes place, as they clearly specify.

Then, The Stage 1 contract is expected to have a performance period of 18 months.
