#  InnovaPrep LLC Receives Contract in Support of Chemring Sensors & Electronic Systems for the U.S. Department of Defense JBTDS Program

 Written by Zoe Rutherford on 12 December 2023.

*Following successful system development programs and a Production Readiness Review, the Milestone C acquisition decision for the Joint Biological Tactical Detection System (“JBTDS”) program was approved. The JBTDS is a critical system for detection of aerosolized biological warfare agents at the operational point-of-need.*

InnovaPrep LLC announced the contract award from Chemring Systems and Electronic Systems (Prime) to supply hardware and consumables in support of the Low-Rate Initial Production (“LRIP”) phase of the Department of Defense’s Joint Biological Tactical Detection System (“JBTDS”) program.

“This contract is a testament to the crucial role of air sampling for safe and rapid detection of biological threats,” said Dave Alburty, CEO InnovaPrep. “InnovaPrep continues to expand its capabilities to improve its air sampling systems that provide rapid and efficient target capture and recovery solutions ensuring accurate threat detection where it is needed most.”
