Description
The purpose of this amendment is to incorporate the following supplemental information in paragraph one of the section titled, Full Proposals of Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) Number DTFH61-13-R-00008: The capabilities for the persistence library are as follows: 1. Import TNM 2.5 inputs in xml format as created from the TNM 2.5 to 3.0 converter within the TNM 3.0 Beta. 2. Open and save TNM 3.0 cases in xml format, which will include all inputs to the model, and sound level results for only specific designs: the default barrier designs ("All Mitigation Barriers at Zero Height" and "All Barriers at Input Height") and all remembered user-defined barrier designs. In order to support the same barrier design process as supported in TNM 2.5, the BAA respondents would need to develop means to save partial results. Offerors can obtain better understanding of this by reading the source code. _________________________________________________________________________ In addition to the above, this amendment is also to provide FHWA's response to the following question regarding the BAA: Question 1) Does FHWA want the offerors to implement acoustic calc code? For example, does FHWA require: 1- acoustic calculation code plus a GUI front-end (includes all other input/output and more features, as listed in BAA, page 4), or 2- only the GUI front-end code, where the acoustic code comes from Volpe/FHWA (for example by a DLL) FHWA's response: The first sentence within the "Description and Objectives" (top of page 3) states "The FHWA is soliciting proposals to interface the FHWA Traffic Noise Model (TNM) version 3.0 acoustics library within a graphic user interface (GUI) such as...". As such, FHWA expects any submission to take the FHWA acoustic library, also referred to as the "source code", and implement (or, interface) it with a GUI to accomplish at least the items listed on page 4 of the BAA. FHWA will have sole ownership of the acoustical code, and any changes from the acoustical code will come from the FHWA. This BAA is amended accordingly.
