June 23, 2025- Thermo Fisher Scientific announced that it has been awarded a five-year, $94.5 million contract by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to supply the Navy with a next-generation dosimetry system alongside updated radiation health and database management software.
The U.S. Navy operates the world’s most technologically advanced naval fleet and is the largest defense user of dosimetry systems globally. With this award, Thermo Fisher will supply Navy Occupational Dosimetry System (NODS) devices along with Navy Radiation Exposure Management System (NAVREMS) software. Manufactured in Oakwood Village, Ohio, these tools support the monitoring and management of occupational radiation exposure for Naval personnel associated with nuclear-powered Navy assets, nuclear-capable shipyards, research sites, laboratories, and naval medical facilities. The advanced digital dosimetry devices, featuring integrated beta, gamma, and neutron detection capabilities, are designed to deliver precise and reliable radiation exposure monitoring.
