- Description
- ***NOAA's Acquisition & Grants Office, Western Acquisition Division-Boulder, Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR), Climate Program Office, intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with the University of Madison-Wisconsin, out of Madison, WI to provide project management, compaign planning, and engineering support for the Support Scanning High-Resolution Sounder (S-HIS) participation in the Atmospheric Emissions and Reactions Observed from Megacities to Marine Areas (AEROMMA). ***The sole source determination is based on the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) requirement that University of Madison-Wisconsin is the only vendor that can provide the S-HIS expertise for the AEROMMA airborne field campaign. The S-HIS instrument is the only instrument of its exact type and is dependable with high calibration accuracy and consistent performance across all platforms, having participated in 35 field campaigns with measurement applications including: radiances for evaluating radiative transfer models, temperature and water vapor retrievals, cloud radiative properties, cloud top retrievals, surface emissivity and temperature, trace gas retrievals, and satellite calibration validation. S-HIS is highly valuable to field campaigns like AEROMMA where this extensive range of properties is needed. Without Dr. Taylor�s team S-HIS will not be available to NOAA and without S-HIS available to NOAA the AEROMMA field mission will not be able to fully carry out its goals. Period of performance will be date of award through 6/30/2023. ***THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS AND NO SOLICITATION PACKAGE IS AVAILABLE. HOWEVER, FIRMS THAT BELIEVE THEY CAN FULLY MEET THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS MAY SUBMIT SUBSTANTIATING DOCUMENTATION IN WRITING TO THE IDENTIFIED POINT OF CONTACT WITHIN 15 DAYS AFTER PUBLICATION OF THIS SYNOPSIS. SUCH DOCUMENTATION WILL BE EVALUATED SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSE OF DETERMINING WHETHER OR NOT TO CONDUCT THIS PROCUREMENT ON A COMPETITIVE BASIS. A DETERMINATION BY THE GOVERNMENT NOT TO CONDUCT A COMPETITIVE PROCUREMENT, BASED UPON RESPONSES TO THIS NOTICE, IS SOLELY WITHIN THE DISCRETION OF THE GOVERNMENT. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE IN RESPONSE TO THIS NOTICE.
