About this opportunity
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is soliciting proposals under Solicitation Number 1332KP26R0016 for commercial multi-spectral satellite imagery observations to support wildfire detection, characterization, monitoring, and mapping. The procurement seeks Level 1B and 1C calibrated, geolocated radiance data with specified spectral bands covering visible/near-infrared (0.6-0.9 μm), shortwave/midwave infrared (3.5-4.2 μm), and longwave infrared (8.0-12.5 μm) channels. Threshold requirements include 200-meter horizontal spatial resolution at nadir and 3-hour latency for data delivery, with objectives of 50-meter resolution and 60-minute latency. The Government will employ a Technical Evaluation Team to assess proposals using a strengths-and-weaknesses methodology, with technical capability weighted as significantly more important than price. The deadline for submitting questions is April 20, 2026, at 2:00 PM Eastern Time, and proposals must be received by April 30, 2026, at 2:00 PM Eastern Time.
This is a Total Small Business Set-Aside acquisition with no identified incumbent contractors. The estimated contract value is not explicitly stated, though the NAICS code 518210 carries a $40 million size standard for small businesses. The contract period runs from June 1, 2026, through April 1, 2027, consisting of a one-month preparation phase, a six-month data delivery phase during peak wildfire season (June-November), and a three-month evaluation phase. Contractors must deliver at least 80 percent of full-swath constellation-level data over predefined regions of interest, primarily in the western United States, across two available region size options (1,900 km × 1,000 km or 950 km × 500 km). Place of performance is Silver Spring, Maryland 20910, and the Government will receive a perpetual, non-exclusive, worldwide license to use and distribute the delivered data to U.S. Government agencies and authorized international entities.
