- Description
- The SuperComputer Science Consortium (SC^2) members, through a cooperative effort, previously installed an OC-3 circuit from the Pittsburgh SuperComputer Center/Carnegie Mellon University (PSC/CMU), Pittsburgh PA to the West Virginia University (WVU) Cancer Center, Morgantown, WV and a circuit from the WVU Cancer Center to the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL). It is necessary to upgrade/expand the previously established connection to allow enhanced bandwidth capability to all parties at a significantly reduced cost. This upgrade/expansion is known as the ?Northern West Virginia High Speed Optical Network (HSON). The Department of Energy, NETL, is one of several members of the SC^2. The Department of Energy intends to issue a sole source contract to West Virginia University Research Corporation for the NETL portion of the collaboration for "Northern West Virginia High Speed Optical Network (HSON)?, in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Part 6.302-1 ? Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The West Virginia University Research Corporation is the support service contractor through the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) responsible for the development and implementation of the HSON. NASA has already made a considerable investment of Federal dollars in the development of this network. NETL?s participation will help leverage additional Federal dollars preventing possible needless duplication of expenditures. Please note that this is NOT a Request for Proposals (RFP) and NO solicitation will be issued as a result of this notice.
