Description: DHS S&amp;T has designed this program to provide a proof-of-concept within one to three years that could result in high-payoff technology (revolutionary) breakthrough. DHS S&amp;T is seeking out those innovative, &#147;out-of-box&#148;, possibly disruptive technologies (disrupting the normal evolutionary technological development process). It is recognized that this project will have considerable technological risk; however it also offers the potential for significant gains in capability. Innovation is critical. Offerors should demonstrate that their efforts are aimed at high-risk/high-payoff technologies that have the potential for making revolutionary rather than incremental improvements to homeland security, including emerging threats and operational challenges. DHS S&amp;T reserves the right to select for award and funding all, some, or none of the Full Proposals received in response to this solicitation. DHS IS SEEKING THE BEST PROPOSALS FOR THIS BAA.
