Toyon's Homeland Security Systems Engineering Team provides a
spectrum of services related to evaluating methods for protecting facilities
from chemical, biological, and radiological (CBR) threats. The HS systems
engineering team's capabilities include:
- Application of systems engineering techniques and
methodologies to a range of issues associated with protection of facilities
from CBR attack.
- Technology assessments
- Effectiveness evaluations
- Cost/benefit analyses
- Concepts of Operations/Response procedures
- Modeling and simulation
- Developing mathematical models for transport of CBR agents inside facilities
- CONTAM multizone airflow model
- Modeling CBR threats for evaluating new and available technologies
- Test planning and execution for characterizing facilities
- Airflow properties
- Population characteristics
- Contaminant transport measurement using tracer gas
(e.g. SF6) releases
- Flow, pressure, and building leakage measurements
- Consulting services for installations of CBR technologies
- Assessing in-situ performance of CBR sensor networks
(PD, PFA , MTBF, etc.)
- Evaluating Concepts of Operations (CONOPS) and Standard
Operating Procedures (SOP's) for on-site personnel
The majority of Toyon's Homeland Security Engineering
Group works on confidential classified projects. Recent
unclassified projects include:
- Building Protection Toolkit
– Sponsor: DARPA
Project: support to Building Protection Toolkit
(formerly Immune Building Toolkit
- Counter Underground Facilities
– Sponsor: DARPA
Project: characterize underground connectivity
between above-ground buildings
- Mail Facility –
Sponsor: US Postal Service/Northrup Grumman
Project: Assess placement of Biological Detection
Systems at Curseen-Morris (formerly Brentwood)
postal facility
