About this award
The U.S. Air Force awarded a $1.90 million definitive firm fixed-price contract to Space Sciences and Engineering LLC (doing business as Planetiq) on June 18, 2024, to develop a new capability for improving numerical weather prediction forecasts of the planetary boundary layer by accounting for the effects of ducting. This contract is designated as a total small business set-aside and is scheduled for completion by December 19, 2025. Planetiq, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Golden, Colorado, specializes in earth observation and satellite data services, providing advanced geospatial and atmospheric monitoring technologies to federal agencies including NASA, NOAA, and the U.S. Air Force.
The requirement addresses a critical Air Force need to enhance planetary boundary layer forecasting capabilities through advanced atmospheric modeling. Planetiq's expertise in delivering satellite-derived data and analytics positions it well for this mission, particularly given its track record of supporting numerical weather prediction initiatives and operating under significant federal IDIQ contracts, including a $476 million Commercial SmallSat Data Acquisition Program with NASA and a $59.3 million Radio Occultation Data Buy II contract with NOAA. The work will be performed at Planetiq's facility in Golden, Colorado.
