- Description
- The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) intends to award a single source contract to Vaisala, Inc, 194 South Taylor Avenue, Louisville CO 80027 for delivery of cloud to ground lightning for the geographic region of the CONUS, Puerto Rico and the USVI (Zone 1). The contract is for a term of three months commencing on July 7, 2012 with two three month options. This data is for use by the Automated Lightning Detection and Report System (ALDARS). In accordance with the Acquisition Management System (AMS) policy, the basis for authorizing this single source procurement is because the current FAA contract with the present provider of cloud to ground lightning data expires on July 6, 2012, which does not afford the FAA the time necessary to complete a longer term competitive source selection procurement and provide for contract overlap during start up testing. Vaisala Inc. is the sole contractor currently providing lightning data to the FAA without interruption to the legacy equipment which is essential for the safety of the flying public. A competitive solicitation was released on May 31, 2012. This announcement is for informational purposes only, not a Solicitation/Request for Proposal. If you have any questions or comments on this contract action, please contact the Contracting Officer, Jacqueline Haralson no later than close of business June 20, 2010 at Jacqueline.haralson@faa.gov.
