- Concerns having the ability to furnish the services described herein are requested to give written notification (including the telephone number for a point of contact) to the procuring office above within 45 calendar days from the date of this synopsis. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Earthquake Information Center (NEIC) in Golden, Colorado, has a requirement to upgrade the existing USGS Earthworm Real-time and Database Architecture which supports NEIC activities. The USGS NEIC staff requires the assistance of an experienced network seismologist with strong computer technology expertise to assist in developing programs for the NEIC upgrade with the following unique qualifications, which are considered essential to the requirement: 1) In-depth knowledge and experience as a designer and developer of seismic acquisition and analysis systems; 2) In-depth knowledge and experience in developing seismic algorithms for earthquake location, magnitude determination, phase association, and coincidence triggers for archiving of seismic data; 3) In-depth knowledge and experience working with C, C++, FORTRAN, Forth, Java, SQL, 3D API, DBMS API, ArcView and Avenue 4GL GIS language; and 4) In-depth knowledge and understanding of the Earthworm Parametric Schema currently being used at the NEIC. Based on information available at this time, and in accordance with 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1), implemented by FAR 5.302-1, the Government considers the specified services as a sole source from Science and Technology International, 733 Bishop Street, Honolulu, Hawaii, and proposes to negotiate a contract with that firm on that basis. However, should additional sources be identified, they will be considered. Firms who feel that they can furnish the required services are invited to submit in writing an affirmative response to this announcement, and such other materials which correspond to the required items stated herein. This information will be evaluated and used to determine if competitive opportunities exist. Since no solicitation document exists, requests for such documents without accompanying information will be considered non-responsive to this request without further consideration. This notice may represent the Government's only official notice of this procurement. See Note 22.
