- 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 Mrs. R. A. Stevenson of Westminster, CO to provide for expansion and enhancement of the Thermodynamics Research Center (TRC) Thermodynamics Tables. Sole Source determination is based on a requirement of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for non-personal services with general skills involved in computer programming and database design and management skills combined with extensive experience in critical data evaluation. Specialized skills include demonstrated familiarity with the TRC database systems and, in particular, TRC Thermodynamic Tables-Hydrocarbons and TRC Thermodynamic Tables-Non-Hydrocarbons. TRC Thermodynamic Tables-Hydrocarbons and TRC Thermodynamic Tables-Non-Hydrocarbons represent hard copy publications of the critically evaluated thermophysical and thermochemical property data for various classes of organic compounds. These publications are supported and maintained by the Thermodynamics Research Center (TRC) of the Physical and Chemical Properties Division. The production of the TRC Thermodynamic Tables has been developed and coordinated by Mrs. Stevenson since 2001. Mrs. Stevenson has a unique combination of skills necessary to provide the solutions for all the tasks related the work under the contract. Progress in the preparation of the Thermodynamic Tables-Hydrocarbons and TRC Thermodynamic Tables Non-Hydrocarbons and development of SOURCE data system has its immediate impact into development and timely completion of a variety of other databases as well as hard copy data products scheduled for release by TRC. Any lapse in the quality, continuity, and schedules for TRC data products would be severely detrimental to NIST and to the users of this information. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation package is available. However, firms that believe they can provide equipment that fully meets the Government's requirements may submit substantiating documentation in writing to the identified point of contact within 15 days after publication of this synopsis. Documentation should include literature, resumes and such other materials, which correspond to the essential requirements stated herein. 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 compete this proposed effort on a competitive 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.
