- Description
- ***NOAA's Acquisition & Grants Office, Western Acquisition Division-Boulder, intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Cornell University in Ithaca, NY to provide the science needed to support effective decision making to mitigate climate change for NOAA to better understand how the chemistry and composition of the atmosphere may change over the 21st Century. The vendor will provide a focused set of chemical hindcast experiments to test and grade the performance of an ensemble of global chemistry-transport models (CTMs). ***The sole source determination is based on the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) requirement for add-on services already conducted by Cornell. This is an opportunity for NOAA to participate in this research. Period of performance shall be September 1, 2010 through August 31, 2011 with one option year. ***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. 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.
