Single Source Justification Redacted.pdf

This single source justification document proposes a sole source award for antenna spares to support two weather radar systems. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration seeks to procure spare parts for its WCDAS HR1 and HR2 systems from the original equipment manufacturer to ensure interoperability. As the incumbent contractor designed the proprietary components, only this vendor can supply form, fit and function compatible replacements. Awarding this noncompetitive contract will allow NOAA to maintain operational readiness of critical weather monitoring equipment while avoiding costly redesigns or re-engineering of customized parts. The solicitation number for this limited competition opportunity is NOAA23WCDASHR12Spares, with an unspecified period of performance.
