The brief

Rapiscan Systems Ltd have since 2009 been awarded through various open competitions provided DfT with 'Planned Preventative Maintenance' service plans per year; and, adhoc Corrective Maintenance' + provision of consumables associated with Explosive Trace Detection (ETD) machines, which were produced by Rapiscan Systems Ltd themselves.

DfT are responsible for ensuring the ETD machines are kept in good working order for use by end users at overseas airports, whether by host states or airlines, the latter of which undertake additional measures at the gate in certain countries.

Therefore, whilst DfT retains this responsibility, it requires provision for Services for DfT ASIO's Explosive Trace Detection machines currently deployed overseas.

The provision of this service will be continually reviewed and may require further extensions to continue these services.

This award is for a further extension to December 2024.
