- 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 LBIsat LLC, South Jordan, Utah 84095 for VSAT communications circuits for global seismographic network (GSN) stations in the Pacific Ocean. The sole source determination is based on the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) cooperative agreement with the National Science Foundation which has established the GSN of digital seismic stations to provide seismic data that will support tsunami warning activities. LBI Sat LLC is the satellite service provider used to connect international sites for the IRIS/USGS data using satellite services on NSS-9 and Intelsat 701. In order to mitigate any possible risk of loss of critical sensor date, continuity of service from LBISat is required. The period of performance is for one year from date of award. ***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 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.
