SOURCES SOUGHT: Biometrics at Sea System

BASS is the primary biometrics at sea collections system for the Coast Guard’s Alien Migrant Interdiction Operations (AMIO) and Enforcement of Laws and Treaties (ELT) providing mobile biometrics collection and analysis capability to operators in the maritime environment and remote areas where the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) operates. BASS aids in identifying individuals interdicted at sea and provides decision makers with information to assist in the determination of courses of action in USCG law enforcement interdictions; (e.g. repatriate, arrest, refer for prosecution, etc.), by providing additional identifying information of interdicted persons not available without BASS collection and analysis. Additionally, the capability deters human smuggling networks by improving enforcement of U.S. Immigration Laws and identifying potential terrorist using typical AMIO routes.
