- Description
- The John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe Center) in support of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Cambridge, MA, is seeking to procure services to redevelop the upstream tool and associated database capable of modeling emissions from transport and production of mobile source fuels. The same resources used in the development of the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) Aviation Environmental Design Tool (AEDT) are used in the development of the upstream tool. The Volpe Center development team has used the Emissions Modeling Framework (EMF) as the core of this new tool. This upgrade requires advanced expertise in the EMF. The Volpe Center plans to extensively use the EMF as the core of this new upstream tool. The Government intends to award a purchase order on a sole source basis under FAR Subpart 13.106-1(b) to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, The Center for Environmental Modeling for Policy Development. The NAICS Code is 541990; the Small Business size standard is $15M. Notice: Interested firms must submit a written capability statement to the above named point of contact providing clear and convincing evidence of the firms' capability to provide the specific required services mentioned above. Written capability statements must be submitted within ten (15) calendar days from the date of publication of this synopsis. Responses received after ten (15) calendar days or without the required documentation will be considered non-responsive and will not be considered. Such documentation will be utilized solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. The Government will not pay for any documentation provided in response to this synopsis and documentation received will not be returned to the sender. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement on a full and open competitive basis, based upon responses received to the synopsis, is solely within the discretion of the Government. Telephone calls made in place of the required documentation will not be accepted.
