About this opportunity

The Office of Naval Research has issued a Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source contract for the repair and upgrade of an OmniGlobe projection system. The notice, posted on June 17, 2025, indicates ONR's intention to award a Firm-Fixed Price contract to The Climate Institute of North America for upgrading a 48-inch spherical display platform. The Climate Institute of North America is being selected as the sole authorized distributor of Omni-Globe projector components from manufacturer Globoccess GmbH in the United States. The specific system requiring upgrade is an OmniGlobe Dual 48 Laser model, and the contract falls under NAICS code 339999 (All Other Miscellaneous Manufacturing) with a size standard of 550 employees. The contract is being awarded under FAR 13.106-1(b) based on the vendor's unique technical capabilities and exclusive distribution rights.

The purpose of this project is to enhance the existing OmniGlobe projection system through integration of advanced hardware, software, and supporting infrastructure to improve projection quality, interactivity, and system performance for high-resolution scientific and educational visualizations. The performance period is set for 90 days from contract award. While ONR intends to proceed with sole source procurement, interested parties may submit technical capability statements within seven calendar days of the notice publication date, which establishes a deadline of June 24, 2025. However, the government retains sole discretion on whether to open the requirement to competition based on any responses received. Contractors interested in responding should contact Mr. Michael Lemon (Contract Specialist) or Mr. Alejandro Moreno (Contracting Officer) at ONR's Arlington, Virginia office for additional information regarding technical capability requirements.
