Program Process:
In order to provide DHS Operating Components, the First Responder Community and other End-Users with products that meet their specific requirements, DHS-S&T will provide a vehicle by which Private Sector entities can offer products and/or conduct product development geared specifically toward meeting those needs. Private Sector entities currently possessing a technology/product/system rated at a Technology Readiness Level TRL-5 (i.e. applied or advanced R&D) or above that potentially closes a defined DHS capability gap by addressing detailed operational requirements supplied by DHS-S&T will have the opportunity to continue development of their technology/product/system to TRL-9 (i.e. fully field deployable product) at the expense of the Private Sector entity with the assurance that DHS-S&T will verify their independent third-party test(s) of a given technology/product/system.
Only when TRL-9 is achieved, will Private Sector entities be assured that their testing and evaluation (T&E) of the fully deployable technology/product/system (performed by an independent third-party) is verified by a DHS-S&T assessment of a given third party, independent T&E. DHS-S&T will publish its assessment on the DHS’ public website as validation of the success (or failure) to meet the Private Sector entity’s own established specifications. This approach enables DHS-S&T to review several highly developed technologies/products/systems in an open and fair manner while successful Private Sector entities will share in the imprimatur of DHS-S&T. DHS Operating Components, the First Responder Community and other End-Users are enabled to make informed purchasing decisions for necessary technologies/products/systems to enhance their capabilities through meeting their detailed requirements. In addition, these solutions are excellent candidates for liability protection under the provisions of the DHS SAFETY Act.
