About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI · Jul 21, 2025

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) issued this Limited Source Justification Notice for a two-month extension of National Weather Radio maintenance services in Colorado, awarded to the Colorado Department of Public Safety (CDPS) for $54,052.50. The contract modification extends critical maintenance services for NOAA's National Weather Service All-Hazards Weather Radio network across 28 transmission locations throughout Colorado, including sites in Alamosa, Denver, and Pueblo, from July 17, 2025, to September 16, 2025. CDPS was selected as the sole source due to their unique position as a state agency that owns the transmitter facilities, communication networks, and provides restricted access to the NWR transmission sites, making them the only entity capable of providing uninterrupted maintenance services. The justification emphasizes that changing providers would involve high costs and risks that could disrupt the 24/7 weather radio transmissions essential for protecting life and property. The services include preventative scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, logistical support, and system support services under a firm-fixed-price contract using Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 13 simplified acquisition procedures.
