The purpose of the Special Notice is to continue IPI's provision of operation and support services for NARA's eClimateNotebook website. Key requirements include IPI maintaining the website, analytical tools, technical support for administrators, and calibration services for NARA's PEM2 data loggers over a base year plus four option years. Only IPI is eligible as the original developer of the software upon which NARA's website is based. The total estimated cost of the requirement is provided for a base year and four option years of ongoing website support and environmental monitoring services.
