About this opportunity
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration seeks to transition from hardware-based ground radio processing to cloud-based software applications through demonstrations and studies. NOAA's National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service is releasing a Broad Agency Announcement to explore utilizing commercial multi-mission RF digitization, software-defined radios, front-end processing with cloud capabilities to support telemetry processing for satellite programs. Responses are due by February 2, 2023 and may not exceed 17 pages, including a technical proposal and small business participation plan. Awards of up to $750,000 each will be made to one to three respondents to conduct up to six-month demonstrations and provide a final report and briefing.
There is no set-aside designation. Responses should address NAICS code 541511 - Custom Computer Programming Services and PSC code D304 - ADP Software and Support: System Acquisition. Eligible respondents include private industry, government laboratories, and academic institutions. Through demonstrations at its Suitland, Maryland location, NOAA intends to inform transition options to a common service-based enterprise ground architecture utilizing commercial cloud capabilities for expansion of NOAA's Common Cloud Framework to include radio frequency ingestion, modulation, decoding and frame processing network functions on an enterprise level for near-term space-to-ground communications support.
Notice text
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) will be releasing a BAA to explore options to transition from hardware-based ground radio processing to cloud-based soft-ware applications. The purpose of the BAA will be to explore the feasibility of using enterprise multi-mission RF digitization in combination with Software-Defined Radios (SDRs) and Front-End Processing (FEP), as developed with cloud-based capabilities, in support of telemetry processing for its satellite program(s) of record.
Through the BAA, NOAA, National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS) will be requesting demonstrations to aid in the next steps regarding the viability of utilizing commercial sector capabilities for expansion of the NESDIS Common Cloud Framework (NCCF) where applicable and has identified the utilization of cloud-based core digital ground capabilities required for enterprise-level support of Space-to-Ground Communications (SCM) in the near-term as an area that warrants further exploration. NOAA’s expectation is to use the results of the demonstrations and studies to gain a deeper understanding of the options to transition to a Common Service-based Enterprise Ground Architecture.
The BAA will be open to all industry and Academia. Universities, Institutions. Small Businesses are encouraged to submit their own response, and/or to join other entries as team members in submitting responses to the BAA.
