- The National Severe Storms Laboratory (NSSL), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) proposes to negotiate on a sole source basis under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1) with Vieux & Associates, Inc. 1215 Crossroads Blvd., Suite 118, Norman, OK 73072-3359 to acquire Vflo Hydrologic model services, licenses and customization. The goal of this research and development is to improve flood and flash flood warnings and forecasts in upland basins in the country of Taiwan for the Central Meteorological Bureau (CWB). The Vieux & Associates Inc. has already developed and deployed at the CWB a physics-based distributed parameter rainfall-runoff model called Vflo. The Vflo model requires additional testing, configuration and coupling with existing CWB infrastructure. The proposed effort would focuse on training, calibration studies, display enhancements, test feasibility of the existing Vflo module for QPF, test existing soil moisture module application in Tanshui, river basin and facilitate coupling of the Vflo module with CWB SOBEK. Model. Modeling support will be provided which includes on site training and teleconferences. Vieux & Associates Inc. will provide an enhanced version of the web-version of the Vflo model, couple and ingest input from NSSLs advanced version of QPESUMS, perform an initial calibration for storm events, train personnel on use and operation of Vflo. The real-time model operation, distributed flood level criteria development, and operational implementation will be a shared responsibility between the CWB and Vieux & Associates.****This procurement is being conducted per FAR Part 13, Simplified Acquisition Procedures (NTE $100,000).
