About this opportunity

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Aircraft Operations Center is seeking to procure three Novatel PwrPak7D high-precision GPS receivers with part number PW7720-GFD-LZN-CBN for use on aircraft-based systems. These receivers must feature dual antenna capability utilizing an OEM7 Global Navigation Satellite System, with output rates up to 100Hz, three COM ports (RS-232), one network port, and specific dimensional requirements of 5.8" x 4.9" x 2.2". The units must be identical to those currently installed on existing NOAA aircraft to ensure form, fit, and function compatibility. The government will award a firm fixed-price contract using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation method, with strict supply chain risk management provisions that may include vendor audits and potential contract termination if risks are identified. Critical deadlines include questions submission by 12:00 AM Eastern on July 3rd, 2025, quote submission by 12:00 AM Eastern on July 7th, 2025, and an anticipated award date of July 30th, 2025.

This procurement is designated as a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 334511 (Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,350 employees. The solicitation does not identify any incumbent contractors, though it specifies that the receivers must match existing equipment currently used on NOAA aircraft. While no specific contract value is disclosed, the procurement involves exactly three GPS receiver units that must be delivered within 30 days after contract award according to the main solicitation notice, though one government file indicates a 90-day delivery requirement. Performance will occur at the NOAA Aircraft Operations Center located at 3450 Flightline Drive, Lakeland, Florida 33811, where the equipment will be accepted. The procurement supports NOAA's fleet operations, specifically for integration into two new Gulfstream G550 aircraft according to the attached government documentation.
