About this opportunity
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is seeking to procure Visibility and Present Weather Sensors through a single-award Firm-Fixed-Price Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract. The solicitation (RFP 1305M225R0003) requires high-performance meteorological sensors capable of reporting optical range from 10-20,000 meters, detecting multiple precipitation types, and operating in extreme environmental conditions from -40F to 120F. Proposals will be evaluated primarily on Technical Capability, with Past Performance and Price also considered, with non-price factors significantly more important than pricing. Potential vendors must submit their proposals electronically to paul.thomas@noaa.gov and jennifer.roesner@noaa.gov by January 31, 2025, with preliminary questions due by December 20, 2024. The contract requires vendors to demonstrate a 20-year life cycle supportability commitment, including spare parts and firmware upgrades.
This is an unrestricted competition under NAICS code 334519 with a size standard of 600 employees, meaning small businesses and large enterprises can both compete. The estimated contract value ranges from $25,000 to $23 million, with projected sensor quantities of 1,000 units distributed across five ordering periods: 35 units in Year 1, 132 units in Year 2, 200 units in Year 3, 440 units in Year 4, and 193 units in Year 5. Sensors will be delivered to the National Logistics Support Center in Grandview, Missouri, and installed at existing Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS) locations, primarily at airports. The sensors must interface with Campbell Scientific CR1000X data loggers and meet specific technical specifications, including NEMA 4X ratings for outdoor installation, operation on 115 VAC or DC power, and a Mean Time Between Failure exceeding 10,000 hours. Vendors must provide complete installation kits, technical documentation, and demonstrate self-diagnostic capabilities.
