Terrestrial Relative Gravimeter

This pre-solicitation notice seeks to procure three Scintrex-MGL Land Gravity Monitoring Systems from Micro-G Lacoste, Inc. on a sole-source basis. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, on behalf of the National Geodetic Survey, requires these systems to continuously and accurately measure terrestrial gravity in support of projects including Gravity for the Redefinition of the American Vertical Datum and the Geoid Monitoring Service. Interested parties were to submit any questions regarding the agency's capability to meet requirements by July 5, 2022. Delivery of the three systems, each including a Scintrex gPhoneX Relative Gravity Meter and Odin Leveling Platform meeting specified technical standards, must be completed by September 30, 2023.

There is no set-aside designation for this procurement. As a sole-source contract, Micro-G Lacoste, Inc. is the only identified source able to fulfill the requirement. The main NAICS code is 334511 and PSC code is 1520, covering the specified Scintrex-MGL Land Gravity Monitoring Systems. The total value of the three systems is not provided but will likely be in the range of several hundred thousand dollars given the specialized nature and technical requirements of the equipment.
