- Description
- This announcement is NOT A SCREENING INFOMRATION REQUEST (SIR) or REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP). Furthermore, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is not seeking or accepting unsolicited proposals. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) intends to award a single source contract to Verizon Business for continuing technical support to the International Satellite Communications System (ISCS) 2nd Generation (G2) Extended (e) network program. This support network includes dissemination of critical, time-sensitive, meteorological aviation products and meteorological, hydrological, and climatologic products to domestic and international users located in the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean Regions. The purpose of this announcement is to inform industry of the FAA's decision to award a non-competitive contract to Verizon Business, the existing ISCS satellite provider. The FAA has determined that it is critical to continue work on an uninterrupted basis with Verizon Business until such time as the ISCS requirements are completed. To successfully finish these tasks, continuity of support is required. This award will allow the FAA to maintain continuity and consistency in transitioning from satellite broadcast to an internet file server. A competitive solicitation is not available for this procurement. If your firm believes it can fulfill the requirement, please provide evidence of your firm's capability and experience in providing the services outlined above and the FAA will evaluate that information accordingly. Any questions regarding this announcement must be directed to Vito Pietanza, Contracting Specialist by 10:00 A.M., Eastern Standard Time, Wednesday, March 31, 2010. The FAA will not pay for any information or any administrative costs incurred associated with any response to this announcement. Therefore, any costs associated with submissions related to this announcement will be solely at the interested party's expense.
