The NWS, Dissemination Systems Branch has a requirement to purchase monthly ongoing management and maintenance of the RAMS. The original RAMS system has become antiquated and difficult to maintain operational. The original RAMS was developed by INH, Inc of Benbrook, TX.

The only available expertise of the RAMS resides with PAJLS, Inc. through the move of a principal designer of the RAMS. PAJLS is the only vendor who has the intimate knowledge and understanding required to upgrade, manage and maintain the system. The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is 41 USC 253(c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, Only one responsible source. The North American Industry Classification Code (NAICS) for this acquisition is 541512, 23.0 million small business size. This is not a solicitation for competitive quotes. However, if any other interested party believes that it can meet the requirements, it may submit a statement of capabilities, which if timely received, will be considered by NOAA. The capability statement and any other information furnished must be in writing, and must contain material in sufficient detail to allow NOAA to determine if the party can meet all of the foregoing requirements. Responses must also be accompanied by descriptive literature, warranties, and/or other information that demonstrates that the quote meets all of the foregoing requirements. Capability statements and related materials must be e-mailed to Amy.Sanderswhite@noaa.gov by February 28, 2011, 1:00 p.m. local time. Award will be made using FAR 13, Simplified acquisition procedures, current through FAC 2005-49.
