About this file

This document is a Statement of Need for a federal contract opportunity. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is seeking software maintenance support for ENVI and IDL licenses that are currently in operational use by the Office of Satellite and Product Operations (OSPO). The ESPC employs ENVI licenses in product creation, and GOES uses IDL licenses on operational systems. This procurement is for the software maintenance renewal of these existing licenses. The period of performance is from 08/01/2024 to 07/31/2025. The contract requires the products and services to comply with various IT security requirements, such as media sanitization, security configuration checklists, PIV-compliant authentication, and IPv6 compliance.

Statement of Need

1. Introduction/Background

The Office of Satellite and Product Operations (OSPO) is responsible for the management and operations of the Satellite Operation Control Center (SOCC) and the Environmental Satellite Product Center (ESPC). ESPC manages and directs the operation of the central ground facilities which ingest, process, and distribute environmental satellite data and derived products to domestic and foreign users. ESPC supports multiple GOES and POES production systems via virtualization. The SOCC manages and directs the operation of NOAA's satellites and the acquisition of remotely sensed data. The Office has operational responsibility for the Satellite Operations Control Center (SOCC) at Suitland, MD and Command and Data Acquisition (CDA) facilities at Wallops, VA and Fairbanks, AK to command and control the satellites, to track the satellites, and to acquire their data. GOES satellites provide the kind of continuous monitoring necessary for intensive data analysis.

2. Scope of Work

The ESPC employs ENVI licenses in product creation. This software combines spectral image processing and geospatial analysis technology. GOES employs IDL licenses on operational systems to extract visualizations from complex numerical data. This procurement is for the software maintenance support of licenses already in operational use.

5. IT Security Requirements Products and services for exchange, refurbishing, or recycling of hardware must comply with NOAA IT Security Manual (ITSM) media sanitization requirements (MP-6) and NIST SP 800- 88 Revision 1. Pre-configured hardware must comply with FAR 39.101(c) regulations for adherence to the NIST SP 800-70 Rev. 3 common security configuration checklist program (https://nvd.nist.gov/ncp/repository). New hardware must comply with FAR 4.1302 and be capable of being configured to utilize approved, per FAR 4.1302(b) PIV-compliant (https://www.idmanagement.gov/approved-products-list/) smart card authentication components.

In addition, new hardware shall be capable of implementing Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) requirements as required by FAR part 11.002(g). Specifically, unless the agency Chief Information Officer waives the requirement for technology using Internet Protocol, the product must comply with applicable technical capabilities defined in the USGv6 Profile (NIST Special Publication (SP) 500-267) and the corresponding declarations of conformance defined in the USGv6 Test Program. To meet this requirement, vendors and suppliers of IP protocol technology must document their product’s support of the requested capabilities through the USGv6 test program (https://www-x.antd.nist.gov/usgv6/) using the USGv6 Suppliers Declaration of Conformity.
