- Description
- The Department of the Interior (DOI), U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has a requirement for technical support services for the Earth Resources Observation and Science Center (EROS), Sioux Falls, South Dakota. EROS is a data management, systems development, and research field center for the USGS that collects archives and distributes many types of remotely sensed photographic and digital earth science data and investigates ways to use the data in scientific and land resource planning and management. The center advances the remote sensing research and science applications that increase our understanding of our planet and result in solutions to societal needs. Operated by the USGS, EROS is a national data reception, processing, archiving, distribution, and research facility for remotely sensed data and other forms of geographic information. EROS maintains the world's largest collection of space and aircraft acquired imagery of the Earth, including over four million images acquired by Landsat and other civil satellites, and over eight million aerial photographs. EROS conducts a broad range of activities in management of global Earth observations data, including the development, operation and management of advanced systems for scheduling, processing, distributing, and applying land related earth science, mapping, and other geographic data and information. The Landsat Data Continuity Contract (LDCC) was awarded to SAIC in March 2008 under Contract No. 08HQCN0006 as a base plus three option years. The Technical Support Services Contract (TSSC) was awarded to SGT, also in March 2008 under Contract No. 08HQCN0005 as a base year, plus four option years years. Both contracts were awarded simultaneously with a base year, plus four option years. Previously, both efforts were combined under one contract, but were separated as two 2008 awards. The USGS intends to exercise Option Year 1 under both contracts to serve as a bridge for a follow-on solicitation that combines the work being performed under both contracts. The anticipated award date for the single procurement is April 2010. This requirement is being issued as full and open in accordance with FAR Part 15 for competitive acquisitions and is subject to the availability of funds. USGS will not accept unsolicited proposals related to the subject of this announcement. The Government anticipates an award of a performance based, cost-plus-fixed-fee type contract. The period of performance will be for a period of one base year, plus four option years beginning with the date of award. An anticipated release date of the solicitation is on or about July 2009. The NAICS Code is 541513 with a $23 Million size standard. A site visit and pre-solicitation conference may be conducted and will be announced at a later date. The solicitation, all related documents and amendments, if any, will only be released and available electronically through the NBC posting system at http://ideasec.nbc.gov/j2ee/login.jsp. As such, no written, telephonic, facsimile or email requests for the solicitation package will be honored. Since this solicitation will only be available electronically, it is solely the responsibility of interested parties to monitor the NBC website for any solicitation amendments. All responsible sources are encouraged to submit an offer.
