USA (Maryland) – Infinite Focus Microscope Software Upgrade Service
Budget
Looking for Proposal
Scope of Work
(1) Vendor needs to provide infinite focus microscope software upgrade service.• InfiniteFocus Microscope (IFM) system software upgrade to enable searchability and comparison capabilities, enhancing forensic analysis efficiency.• The IFM system is a non-contact, optical, 3D imaging and measurement system used by agency Trace Examination Section (TES) for surface profilometry and difference analysis measurements, including tablet debossing, punch face embossing, surface abrasion, pit measurements, corroded surface analysis, and pharmaceutical packaging topography and print profiling• The upgrade will enhance data analysis throughput, enable search and comparison capabilities across datasets, provide sourcing insights to OCI and OII agents, and improve support for suspect counterfeit cases. - The agency upgrade significantly impacted data analysis efficiency, and this proposed upgrade builds upon that investment• The upgrade will significantly enhance analysis efficiency through streamlined search and comparison, automated matching, faster data retrieval, improved data organization, and increased productivity.• This upgrade will also yield long-term benefits, including improved forensic capabilities, operational efficiency, strategic advantages, financial benefits, and futureproofing. Specifically, it will enhance accuracy and reliability, reduce costs, increase throughput, and ensure scalability and adaptability to future technologies.• High-Volume Library Indexing (Terabyte-Scale)- The software must be capable of indexing and querying a terabyte-sized digital library of 3D datasets.- Requirement: The indexing process must allow for "Search-in-Place" capabilities, where users can query historical agency datasets based on metadata (date, operator, difference analysis measurements, roughness parameters, or batch ID) without having to load individual massive files into active memory.(2) The contract period will be for one year.
