The Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization (JIEDD) has issued a Broad Agency Announcement related to acousto-seismic techniques for counter-improvised explosive device (C-IED) applications. JIEDDO seeks proposals for the development of route clearance applications to defeat IEDs from a ground vehicle platform using acousto-seismic techniques to detect and defeat explosively formed penetrators and shallow buried explosives and pressure plates in the road or on the side of the road. The agency hopes to assess systems within two years. Sol. No. JIEDDO_BAA-09-AS-01. Respond by Oct. 26. Contact: Lt. Col.
