Description
The Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Eastern Administrative Support Center intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with the Institute of Global Environment and Society, Center for Ocean-Land-Atmosphere Studies (COLA), Calverton, MD to develop and install the Desktop Weather-forecast System (DWS) Training for Developing Countries pilot system that will introduce in developing countries a cost effective desktop system that obtains real-time, model initialization fields, and display and analysis capabilities to allow forecast and warning capabilities in selected developing countries. The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is 41 USC 253(c)(1), Only One Responsible Source. The COLA is the developer of the GrADS display system and the GrADS-DODS Server, which are the two major components of the DWS and the only system of this type using existing National Weather Service (NWS) models. COLA already provides distributed low-bandwidth model initialization fields in real-time over the Internet. The applicable NAICS is 541511. This action is estimated above the simplified acquisition threshold.
