- The U. S. Department of Commerce, NOAA intends to solicit for purchase of 100 each, Printed Circuit Board Status (PCB) Panel IAW P/N 62828-90057-1; NSN: 5998-01-551-3173; ASN: S100-1A4A1. These items were originally manufactured by SOLA Corporation. They are no longer manufactured but have been modified to increase the reliability of the part by Source Technology Associates. They retain the only stock of repair parts and drawings for the end item. They also retain the engineers and technicians who designed the part, thus reducing the time to manufacture the end item. There is no other commercially available PCB Status Panel that will support the National Weather Service (NWS) Automated Surface and Operations System (ASOS) requirements. Any other manufacturer's PCB Status Panel could not be used without extensive field testing and the cost of such testing could not be recovered through open competition. This item is being purchased for the NWS, to be delivered to the National Logistics Support Center located in Kansas City, MO. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one known source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(6).

This is not a request for proposals and there is no solicitation available at this time. The Government reserves the right to solicit bids based on the receipt of affirmative responses to this notice or issue an order to Source Technology Associates, whichever is determined to be more advantageous to the Government without further notice. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
