About this IDV
Vaisala Inc., a foreign-owned meteorological equipment manufacturer headquartered in Louisville, Colorado, holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $3.56 million with a civilian federal agency for a five-year period extending through March 14, 2026. The IDV was awarded on October 21, 2020, with no set-aside designation applied. The contract establishes a framework for the repair and maintenance of five Automated Weather Observing System (AWOS) components, which are critical infrastructure elements operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Federal Aviation Administration, and Department of Defense to support weather observation, aviation safety, and atmospheric data collection. AWOS stations provide automated surface observations including temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, barometric pressure, precipitation, and cloud height measurements essential to National Weather Service forecasting operations, Federal Aviation Administration flight operations, and military weather support functions.
Delivery orders issued under this IDV vehicle demonstrate ongoing procurement of specialized meteorological equipment and assets in support of the National Airspace System, with multiple task orders executed between 2022 and 2026 ranging from approximately $5,200 to $47,900 each. Performance locations include Superior, Colorado and Woburn, Massachusetts, reflecting Vaisala's primary manufacturing and distribution facilities. The delivery orders employ firm fixed-price pricing structures with no set-aside designations and completion dates generally aligned with Federal Aviation Administration and NOAA operational requirements. Collectively, Vaisala maintains three primary indefinite delivery vehicles with NOAA valued at approximately $51.3 million through 2029, providing complementary procurements of radiosondes, ceilometers, barometer sensors, and mini-dropswindsondes that integrate with AWOS infrastructure to form the federal government's comprehensive weather observation and atmospheric monitoring network supporting civil aviation, weather forecasting, and climate research operations.
