Abstract:
2003 Hand-Held Baggage, Mailroom and Parcel Screening Product Comparison Report

 
How to Find the Right Product

With over 55 X-ray and explosives trace detectors on the baggage screening Market,vigorously promoted by some 10 vendors and their sales reps, there are just too many“best products” out there. You need a knowledgeable, unbiased, independent andunaffiliated advisor to bring you the facts.

This is why HSRC is launching its Homeland Security Product Comparison Report(HPC) series, covering every aspect in the screening industry.

Featured in This ReportThe 2003 Hand-Held Baggage, Mailroom and Parcel Screening - Product Report covers the following products/technologies:
  • ETD - Explosive Trace Detection Systems
  • EDS - Explosives Detection System
  • Mail Dedicated X-ray Systems
For each technology, the report describes existing vendors and products, and provides amuch needed analysis of the crucial operational and ownership aspects such as:
  • Cost of transaction - The cost of screening a single person
  • Cost of ownership - The cost of owning the product and its service
  • Cost of maintenance - The cost of keeping the product running
  • Cost of personnel - The cost of operating the product, including training.
The Homeland Security Research team of experts and analysts worked for a year togive you a clear, usable and relevant comparison of available technologies prices[including U.S. government prices] and products. The report explains availabletechnologies clearly and concisely, presents product specifications in an easy-tocomparetable format, and accompanies every subject with a no-nonsense discussioncovering every important financial and operational aspect.

HPC-The Power of Knowledge

This report is designed to give Security planners, CSOs, purchasing personnel, public,and private sector executives a clear picture of the performance, economics andoperational aspects of each available system and technology.
