    2. Purpose of the PGDS The main purpose of the PGDS is to expedite the nationwide installation of CBISs in an equitable, sustainable, and cost-effective manner PGDS provides specific guidance on ways to implement CBISs that have: Lower costs from both capital and life-cycle perspectives Higher performance than the first generation of installed CBIS PGDS establishes design standards that: Clarify TSA’s operational parameters that must be met Require evidence of the ability to meet these parameters during the planning and design process of the system Address factors necessary to actively manage CBIS costs and performance

    3. PGDS Methodology Establish common design principles and metrics to which all screening system designs must adhere Consolidate collective industry experience and insights relating to best practices for planning, designing, and implementing baggage screening systems Disseminate the latest information on screening technologies, in-line screening concepts, and screening protocols Standardize the methodologies for planning, designing, and evaluating various system design alternatives

    4. Key PGDS Objectives Achieve the lowest-cost CBIS solution Define design standards Understand the complexity of in-line screening systems and avoid the common pitfalls of first generation designs Develop principles for appropriate sizing of CBISs, including methods for estimating demand and equipment requirements Develop principles for accommodating growth beyond initial system sizing Provide flexibility in baggage screening system designs and facilities Use an integrated and participatory approach to the planning and design process, as well as the implementation process, by involving all relevant stakeholders Upgrade the design review and approval process

    5. PGDS Development

    6. Conducted four follow-on studies in collaboration with industry Design for CBIS flexibility (new Chapter 7) CBRA design best practices (new Chapter 9) CBIS O&M best practices (new Chapter 7) CBIS cost eligibility (new Appendix F) Assembled two industry working groups for four days and facilitated open-forum discussions related to the above-mentioned follow-on studies

    7. Improved document usability Reorganized outline to improve flow of document Reduced repetitive text and edited content Enhanced graphics to improve reader experience Improved document format to streamline document production Landscape format Removed 11x17 tables and figures Updated information CBIS types and EDS machines CBIS related cost assumptions EDS operational assumptions (e.g. throughput, FAR, etc.) EDS availability
