1. Agency and contracting activity.

Department of Commerce, NOAA Acquisition and Grants Office (AGO), Eastern Acquisition Division Norfolk

2. Description of supplies or services required to meet agency needs (including the estimated value).

NOAA Aircraft Operations Center owns and maintains Wide Swath Radar Altimeter (WSRA) This is a specialized science instrumentation package, designed to collect airborne data on sea surface directional wave spectra. The WSRA instrumentation package is part of NOAA’s aircraft scientific equipment, and is necessary for quality data acquisition to support hurricane operations. This requisition is to provide upgrade and repair to the WSRA. The period of performance for this requisition will be 3 months from contract award. The estimated value of this repair / upgrade service is $146,000.00.

3. Identification of the single source or the brand name to be solicited.

Pro Sensing Inc 107 Sunderland Road Amherst, MA 01002-1357 https://www.prosensing.com/ Ivan PopStefanija, (413) 695-4710 ivan@prosenseing.com

4. Supporting rationale. Only one source or brand name is reasonably available as detailed below:

□ Other - Only one source is capable Pro Sensing Inc. is the original equipment manufacturer of the WSRA. Pro Sensing Inc.

holds the patents and all proprietary engineering and manufacturing documents.

5. Market Research.

Because this instrument has been manufactured by Pro Sensing Inc., and they possess the unique repair parts and engineering knowledge of their equipment, there is no other viable contractor with the ability and expertise to duplicate their unique capabilities in this narrow science field. There are no other companies manufacturing, repairing and calibrating this WSRA instrument. Pro Sensing Inc. quoted pricing is comparable to other instrument upgrade fees. We have repaired and calibrated similar instruments with Pro Sensing Inc. for similar fees.
