- Description
- The Pacific Northwest Research Station (PNW), Pacific Wildland Fire Sciences Laboratory (PWFSL) - Seattle, WA intends to issue a firm fixed price, sole source award to CPP Incorporated, 2400 Midpoint Dr. STE 190 Fort Collins, CO 80525 to support ongoing research underway through a joint effort between the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to better understand the fire behavior and heat exposure conditions during the 2019 Camp Fire at PWFSL in Seattle, WA. This procurement is being conducted under FAR Subpart 13.106-1(b)(1). To solicit to another source would create a significant loss in efficiency and potential additional costs to the Government. CPP has significant and critical experience creating with source code modification required to properly implement and the level set and physics-based versions of the Wildland-urban interface Fire Dynamics Simulator (WFDS) model. Without this experience, there will be a significant loss of efficiency due to the ramp-up time needed to learn the software well-enough to proceed with the additional source code changes, testing, and final simulations required to complete this project. Without this experience, there will be a significant loss of efficiency due to the ramp-up time needed to recreate the software needed to complete the tasks in this project and is therefore authorized under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). The anticipated award date is September 20, 2019. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) for this requirement is 541511 and the size standard is $27.5 million. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement was based market research. A solicitation will not be issued. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. The point of contract for this action is listed below: Ricky McLellan Contracting Officer e-mail: ricky.mclellan@usda.gov
