The NOAA Professional Technical Support Services 2013-2016 Master Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) is a multi-award contract vehicle designed to provide comprehensive technical and professional services to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Based on the task orders, the vehicle supports a wide range of technical and programmatic functions, including systems engineering, ground segment support, data operations, program management, and organizational review services. The contract appears to be primarily focused on supporting NOAA's technological infrastructure, with a particular emphasis on satellite programs such as GOES-R and associated ground systems.
The task orders under this BPA are predominantly time and materials contracts, with ceiling values ranging from approximately $36,000 to $1.8 million and typical performance periods of 6-12 months. Infinity Technology, LLC emerged as a frequent awardee, winning multiple task orders as a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB). The set-aside designations vary, including SDVOSB sole source, partial small business, and some unrestricted awards. Performance locations are primarily concentrated in Maryland, specifically Silver Spring and Greenbelt. The task orders cover critical support areas such as ground systems division engineering, subject matter expert services, business management, systems engineering, program management, and specialized support for the GOES-R satellite program, demonstrating the vehicle's versatility in supporting NOAA's technical and operational requirements.
