About this forecast
The Department of Commerce's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is seeking a recompete contract for sensor calibration and validation services, focusing on ensuring high-quality satellite data that meets international standards. The primary objectives include extensive scientific and technical research on sensor performance, anomaly resolution, re-calibration, and product validation for operational sensors. The estimated solicitation release date is November 15, 2023, with an anticipated contract award date of February 15, 2024.
The forecasted contract is valued between $20.1 million and $50 million, set aside for total small business competition under NAICS code 541715 for Research and Development in Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences. The work will be performed in College Park, MD, with key activities supporting radiative transfer model development, satellite data assimilation, and calibration of emerging sensor technologies like SmallSat and radio occultation. The primary point of contact is Joel Perlroth (joel.l.perlroth@noaa.gov, +1-301-713-9204) from the National Environmental Satellite, Data and Information Services (NESDIS) organization.
Forecast text
The overall objectives are to ensure that the satellite data produced by each of the NOAA operational sensors are of high quality, and meet product requirements and user needs. This is achieved through extensive calibration/validation, scientific and technical research on sensor performance, characterization, anomaly resolution, re-calibration, and product validation by independent means. The work ensures that the quality of the data produced by NOAA meet or exceed international standards, is traceable to SI (International Systems of units), and best practices are followed in satellite instrument calibration/validation. Additional objectives include supporting the radiative transfer model development and satellite data assimilation, and supporting the calibration/validation of emerging sensors based on emerging technologies such as SmallSat, radio occultation, and Internet of Things. The work will also support current and future sate
