About this award
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded a $125,000 firm fixed-price purchase order to President and Fellows of Harvard College (Harvard Business School Online) on September 1, 2024, for CarbonTracker programming support services. This contract represents a reinstatement of previously awarded work and will be performed in Cambridge, Massachusetts, through August 31, 2027. The award was made on a sole-source basis without small business set-asides, as NOAA determined that Harvard possesses unique capabilities and detailed knowledge of existing computer codes necessary for CarbonTracker model development. The work leverages Harvard's specialized expertise in preprocessing satellite retrievals and developing new methodologies for utilizing satellite data products in conjunction with surface and aircraft measurements from NOAA's Greenhouse Gas Reference Network.
CarbonTracker is a critical tool within NOAA's Global Monitoring Laboratory for atmospheric carbon dioxide analysis and modeling. Harvard's involvement focuses on enhancing the model's computational infrastructure and integrating advanced satellite data processing techniques to improve greenhouse gas monitoring capabilities. The contract reflects NOAA's recognition of Harvard's unparalleled technical expertise in this specialized domain, as no other entity in the United States was deemed capable of meeting the government's requirements for adapting and implementing the necessary computer code modifications into the CarbonTracker system.
