First Responder Technologies under SAVER project.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), National Urban Security Technology Laboratory (NUSTL) is seeking information on commercially available technology for emergency responder missions and use cases. This information is being sought for the DHS Science and Technology Directorate’s System Assessment and Validation for Emergency Responders (SAVER) program which provides information on commercially available equipment to assist response organizations in equipment selection and procurement. The SAVER program develops knowledge products and conducts objective, practitioner-relevant, operationally oriented assessments and validations on commercially available equipment and systems. Relevant information will be shared nationally with federal, state, local, tribal and territorial response agencies. For further details on the SAVER program, visit the SAVER website at https://www.dhs.gov/science-and-technology/saver.

SAVER provides information on equipment that falls within the categories listed in the DHS Authorized Equipment List (AEL). The target audience for this information is emergency response agencies and their respective purchasing agents. The AEL item numbers listed below may not be fully comprehensive of all relevant AEL item numbers for each specific technology or product.

NUSTL is requesting information and conducting market research to identify potential vendors, manufacturers, or distributors of commercial-off-the-shelf first responder technologies in the following areas:

1. Fixed-Position Radiation Monitoring Systems


2. Telemedicine for Emergency Medical Services


3. Ballistic Helmets


4. Personal Cooling Systems/Microclimate Cooling Systems


5. Drone as First Responder


6. 3D Indoor Mapping


7. Video Analytics Software For Weapons Detection Systems


8. Unmanned Underwater Vehicles/Remotely Operated Vehicles


9. Radiation Simulation Systems
