STATEMENT OF NEED

NW-WV4100-22-00118

PURPOSE:

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Weather Service (NWS) Alaska Region Headquarters (ARH) is seeking replacement parts for the H-Frames that are part of the Automated Surface Observation Systems (ASOS) program at 27 Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) sites. These parts will allow the NWS Alaska Region to expedite the replacement of the failing obsolete equipment for the H-Frames that are critical to the forecasting process.

BACKGROUND:

The ASOS program is a joint effort of the NWS, the FAA, and the Department of Defense (DOD). The ASOS program serves as the nation’s primary surface weather observing network. ASOS is designed to support weather forecast activities and aviation operations and, at the same time, support the needs of the meteorological, hydrological, and climatological research communities. ASOS works non-stop, updating observations every minute, 24 hours a day, every day of the year.

The NWS Alaska Region is responsible for 42 ASOS locations installed throughout Alaskan airports providing hourly, special, augmented and radio weather information to the aviation community in support of the local communities. Power is provided through a commercial source and then gets routed to the ASOS H-Frame (NWS Owned). Commercial power is installed to the ASOS H-Frame consisting of exposed electrical boxes, switches and transformers providing all the ASOS DCP and Sensor group its AC Power.

Preventive maintenance on all exposed parts to include sanding and painting has been completed over the years. The units are no longer cost effective and efficient to maintain. The replacement parts will upgrade roughly 27 FAA ASOS sites.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS:

The contractor shall provide all parts and quantities listed in Attachment 1 – Parts List. Where a brand is stated, parts must be brand name or equal.

This requirement is for parts only. All site coordination and labor will be furnished by the NWS Alaska Region to expedite the replacement of the failing obsolete equipment critical to the forecasting process.

PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE / DELIVERY:

Delivery within 60 days after contract award.
