The requirement encompasses research, design and implementation of system improvements, continued system development, and operational support and sustainment of the ATD radar system located at the NSSL site in Norman, Oklahoma. Key contract requirements include addressing obsolescence, delivering ongoing improvements to the radar back end, and maintaining operational capabilities in support of NOAA's severe weather warning mission. The procurement is classified under NAICS Code 541330 (Engineering Services) and Product Service Code R425 (Support - Professional: Engineering/Technical). Interested firms must submit written affirmative responses demonstrating comprehensive understanding of requirements and capability no later than March 19, 2026, though the Government reserves discretion to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement.

General Dynamics Mission Systems (GDMS) is identified as the intended recipient due to its foundational role as primary developer and architect of the PAR program and its proprietary expertise with the equipment and source code. The anticipated contract period of performance spans May 2026 through May 2031, structured as five consecutive one-year ordering periods.
