- Description
- NASA/GSFC has a requirement for system design, digital receiver and processor and experiment design and analysis to develop a prototype radar High-Altitude Imaging Wind and Rain Airborne Profiler (HIWRAP). NASA/GSFC intends to purchase the items from Remote Sensing Solutions, Inc., to provide for a digital receiver subsystem and a transceiver design for the HIWRAP. Only Remote Sensing Solutions has designed and developed a conical scan radar similar to the proposed HIWRAP system which is essential to the success of NASA's Instrument Incubator Program. The existing Remote Sensing Solutions instrument is the only instrument of its kind for measuring atmospheric winds and it involves proprietary technologies that have not been developed elsewhere. Only Remote Sensing Solutions has developed these technologies to a sufficient level of maturity sufficient to provide a digital receiver subsystem and transceiver design for the HIWRAP. Sufficient proprietary data such as technical data packages, specifications, or engineering descriptions are not available to enable another vendor to provide system design, digital receiver and processor, and experiment design and analysis. The Government does not intend to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. See Note 26. See note 22. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency. An Ombudsman has been appointed. See NASA Specific Note "B".
