Smiths Detection has been awarded a potential 15-year, $379M contract from the Customs and Border Protection to supply X-ray machines designed to inspect a train for hazardous items when passing through checkpoints.
CBP placed an initial $13.5M order for HCVT rail cargo inspection systems under the indefinite-delivery-indefinite-quantity and expects to begin receiving the scanners next year, the company said Thursday.
The system works to see through 12 inches of steel and scan rail containers moving at a normal operating speed.
Shan Hood, president at Smiths Detection, said the company intends for its HCVT technology to help CBP agents discover contraband in rail cars with the HCVT technology.
