NOAA requires the vendor to promote the development and dissemination of information and education on the atmospheric and related oceanic and hydrologic sciences and the advancement of their professional applications, and provide access to meteorological, climatological and hydrological information for the NOAA Central Library and the NOAA Regional Libraries in Miami and Seattle. This research information in meteorology, climatology, atmospheric chemistry and physics, astrophysics, hydrology, glaciology, physical oceanography and environmental sciences is required for NOAA researchers to stay current to meet its mission. The government intends to award a firm-fixed price purchase order for this requirement. The period of performance is January 1, 2012 through December 30, 2012. This is a simplified acquisition action estimated value not to exceed $25,000.00. The NAICS Code is 511199 and the small business size standard is $500 employees.

This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received by 4:00 P.M. December 21, 2011 will be considered by the government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future. Evidence must be provided of ability to perform the required work. Responses to this notice, if any, must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the government.
