About this opportunity

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Weather Service published this limited source justification notice for maintenance services of the National Weather Radio (NWR) network in Wisconsin. The justification supports a two-month contract extension with the Wisconsin Educational Communications Board (ECB) for preventative maintenance and logistical support services for the All-Hazards Weather Radio network, valued at $35,778.66 under modification P25007 to existing contract 1305M220CNWWR0060. The sole source determination is based on ECB's unique capabilities as the only entity able to house NWS transmitters on Wisconsin State facilities, their ownership of the communication network handling NWR transmissions throughout Wisconsin, and their strict access controls for contract employees. The firm-fixed-price contract modification extends services from July 17, 2025 to September 16, 2025, maintaining critical 24/7 weather radio services that protect life and property in Wisconsin while NOAA works to award a follow-on contract. The extension ensures continuous operation of essential weather warning systems that cannot be interrupted without risking public safety during the transition to new contracting arrangements.
