- Description
- ***NOAA's Acquisition & Grants Office, Western Acquisition Division-Boulder, Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR), Global Monitoring Laboratory (GML), intends to negotiation, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Oregon State of University (OSU), out of Corvallis, OR, to manage the operation and maintenance of a CO2 and CO monitoring system on Mary�s Peak in OR. ***The sole source determination is based on the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) requirement that the OSU research group of Dr. Beverly Law has an established research-grade measurement program at this OSU research site where GML requires measurements. This OSU measurement site is complementary to the North American component of the GML Global Greenhouse Gas Reference Network. For measurements to be used successfully in NOAA�s CarbonTracker, they must undergo rigorous quality control and calibration procedures in compliance with the World Meteorological Organization�s (WMO) international standards and protocols for greenhouse gas measurements (http://www.wmo.int/pages/prog/arep/gaw/documents/Final_GAW_213_web.pdf). Very few institutions are capable of meeting these WMO standards, typically only specialized government research and academic laboratories. These measurements from OSU meet the stringent GML requirements. Additionally, these are the only such measurement time series in the region of interest and the site is operated by OSU. Period of Performance is Date of Award through June 30, 2024. ***THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS AND NO SOLICITATION PACKAGE IS AVAILABLE. HOWEVER, FIRMS THAT BELIEVE THEY CAN FULLY MEET 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.
