- Description
- ***NOAA's Acquisition & Grants Office, Mountain Region Acquisition Division, intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Prosensing Inc. for a W-band radar data system for use on hurricane research flights to observe sea spray. ***The sole source determination is based on the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) requirement for a new data system that will run the radar in the P3 aircraft from an operator console in the main cabin and collect high resolution Doppler moment and spectral data from the backscattered signals. ProSensing has designed and developed several data systems for use with W-band radars used in research aircraft and the system they propose has been flight tested and meets NOAA requirements to observe high temporal and special signals from the ocean surface. Several vendors of similar data systems were contacted but their products would require significant engineering redesigns. ***This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation package is available. However, firms that believe they can provide services that fully meet the Government's requirements may submit substantiating documentation in writing to the identified point of contact within 15 days after publication of this synopsis. Such documentation 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 conduct a competitive procurement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice.
