ID5169 - Small Item X-Ray Screening Equipment

Description

Provision of Small Item X-Ray Screening Equipment for Manchester Airport, East Midlands Airport and Stansted Airport. MAG Airports Ltd reserves the right to incorporate current and/or future airports into the scope of this contract at a future date. Lot 1: MAG Airport LTD is looking to purchase approximately 46 Small Item X-Rays and associated optional maintenance services, for use at Manchester Airport, East Midlands Airport and Stansted Airport. As part of the passenger screening process, items may be left on a person which require secondary screening. These items can include, but are not limited to, coins and belts. In this scenario, the Department for Transport has advised that Explosive Detection Systems for Cabin Baggage ("EDSCB") equipment or a Small Items X-ray can be used to screen small personal items which may be found on the passenger during the security scanner or body search process. The use of Small Item X-Rays helps to reduce time during the security screening process by enabling passengers to exit the body scanner and process small items without having to process back to divest items into the main EDSCB equipment.
