- Description
- The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Eastern Acquisition Division-Kansas City office intends to award, on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Cimel Electronique for one (1) Sea Prism Photometer for the NOAA Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory (GLERL) located in Ann Arbor, MI. A Sources Sought notice was posted on the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) website on July 14, 2016 and closed on July 21, 2016. No responses were received. Justification for Sole Source The requested is manufactured solely by Cimel Electronique. SeaPRISM instruments are deployed globally by NASA and form a network called the AERONET-OC (Aerosol Robotic Network – Ocean Color) for calibration and validation of satellite remote sensing products (from MODIS, VIIRS, Sentinel). The Lake Erie SeaPRISM would become part of this network. The final purchased system can only be calibrated by NASA and they would not be able to extend calibration support to another vendor. In addition, another sensor would create a potential data collection incompatibility that would not permit comparison to other sensors used for satellite remote sensing calibration and validation.
