- Description
- NASA/LaRC has a requirement to exploit a unique capability in modeling of the Microwave Wind Profile. Specifically, NASA requires a study to idenfity the appropriate channels and deliver a forward model that will be used to design a compact microwave instrument for providing forecasters with continuous profile measurements from surface to 20km of pressure, temperature, water vapor and winds through thick clouds. NASA/LaRC intends to purchase the items from Atmospheric and Environmental Research (AER), Inc., as the only known source who can meet the Agency' needs. AER has already developed the experience, radiative transfer tools, and expertise in radiative transfer modeling. The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on March 3, 2006. Such capabilities/qualifications 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 compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. 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.
