About this file
This is a Statement of Work for the 2026 SHADOZ Weather Balloon Order. The SHADOZ long-term ozonesonde measurement network requires 415 total 1200-gram weather balloons and 55 1500-gram weather balloons to maintain continuity of their multi-decadal balloon-borne ozone profile records used for satellite validation, ozone and pollution trend analysis, and climate studies. The balloons must meet existing SHADOZ specifications to ensure consistency in durability, reliability, and burst height performance.
The balloons will be shipped to four different locations that support SHADOZ logistics, with actual launch operations conducted at SHADOZ stations located in tropical regions. SHADOZ station operators are responsible for preparing, launching, and collecting data from instrumentation carried by the weather balloons, then transmitting the data to NASA/GSFC in Greenbelt, Maryland. The entire order represents approximately one year's supply of weather balloons with a delivery deadline of 30 September 2026.

STATEMENT OF WORK
2026 SHADOZ Weather Balloon Order
Background The SHADOZ long-term ozonesonde measurement network needs to continue their multi-decadal balloon borne ozone profile records for satellite validation, ozone and pollution trends, and climate studies. This requirement is for 415 total 1200-gram and 55 1500-gram weather balloons. The balloons are required to ensure consistency with the existing SHADOZ records (e.g., balloon durability, reliability, and balloon burst height).
Scope The operators at SHADOZ stations shall prepare, launch, and collect the data from instrumentation carried by the weather balloons, and send the data to NASA/ GSFC in Greenbelt, MD.
These weather balloons will either be shipped to four different locations that assist with SHADOZ logistics
Place of Performance This work (launching instrumentation on these free-flying weather balloons) will be performed at SHADOZ stations in the tropics.
Period of Performance This order represents an approximately one-year supply of weather balloons to be delivered by 30 September 2026.
