- Description
- This is a total small business set-a-side combined synopsis/solicitation. The U.S.Geological Survey (USGS), the City of Los Angeles Mayor's office, and Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) are collaborating in a pilot project that installed the ShakeAlert Earthquake Early Warning system in science classrooms at the Eagle Rock High School as a platform in an educational environment for development of the next generation user interface. Feedback from interactions with teachers and students will be used to inform the improvement of the current ShakeAlert sound and interface and development of accompanying training materials. The U.S. Geological Survey has a requirement for the services and expertise of a social scientist in creating a risk communication tool, namely the new ShakeAlert interface, in which it requires a specialist in risk communication to guide both the interface and design. Since an alert sound is required early in the project; expertise is required in the effects of sounds on peoples' behavior. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for a firm fixed price commercial services contract prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will be issued.
