According to the solicitation notice posted on SAM.gov Wednesday, the NOAA seeks contractors that can provide meteorological, hydrological and environmental observing data from nonfederal networks that will be leveraged by the program for enhancing the NWS’s observing capabilities.. The selected contractor will be tasked with providing a broader range of data types, including surface meteorology, vertical profilers, aircraft-based, rawinsondes, marine, ground-based radar, and remote and unique observations.
The data will be delivered through a commercial cloud-based technology similar to the Meteorological Assimilation Data Ingest System, or MADIS. The system will support ingest and dissemination to federal MADIS, NWS Gateway, Advanced Weather Interactive Processing System and Multi-Radar/Multi-Sensor System.
The potential single-award, firm-fixed-price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract will include a five-year ordering period. Orders will have a minimum value of $25,000 and a maximum of $386.5 million. Interested contractors may submit their proposals until Oct. 10.
