Description

This notice is to confirm the award of contract for Explosives Detection Dogs (EDD) Kit 20 - Drop Test Kits via the C16828 EDD Training Aids Framework - Lot 1

The purpose of the Drop Test is to demonstrate that a complete dog-training kit containing explosive material can withstand the impacts likely to occur during handling and transport without the packaging opening, failing, or releasing its contents.
