SYNOPSIS: NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE-SOURCE CONTRACT
Announcement Number: 24-1854
Requirement: Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS)
Software Baseline Management
The US Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA), Acquisition and Grants Office (AGO), Eastern Acquisition Division (EAD) and the National
Weather Service (NWS), using the procedures set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part
12 - Acquisition of Commercial Products and Commercial Services and FAR Part 13 - Simplified
Acquisition Procedures, intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Campbell Scientific Inc (CSI), for a firm-fixed price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for Automated
Surface Observing System (ASOS) Software Baseline Management.
The ASOS is undergoing a service life extension to extend the systems lifecycle beyond 2040. A phased approach to the upgrade is underway and includes the replacement of the data collection, system processing and dissemination subsystems. The ASOS Program Office needs operating system licensing and node management for the CSI ASOS system to support operations and maintenance.
The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is FAR 13.501(a), Sole source acquisitions.
The North American Industry Classification Code (NAICS) for this acquisition is 513210 - Software
Publishers with size standard of $47 million. This notice does not constitute a solicitation, Request for
Proposal (RFP), Request for Quotation (RFQ), or an Invitation for bid (IFB) and it does not restrict the Government in any way regarding its ultimate acquisition approach. However, if any other interested party believes that it can meet the requirements, it may submit a statement of capabilities, which, if timely received, will be considered by NOAA.
A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future. Evidence must be provided of ability to provide the required services. The capability statement and any other information furnished must be in writing and must contain material in sufficient detail to allow NOAA to determine if the party can meet all of the requirements. Capability statements and related materials must be e-mailed to Contract Specialist Nataly Pringle at nataly.pringle@noaa.gov by 5:00 PM EST, August 1, 2024.
