AI Contract Overview

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is seeking a contractor to design, fabricate, install, and test an X-Band Feed and Tracking System (XFATS) that will integrate with the existing 14.2-meter antenna at the Wallops Command and Data Acquisition Station in Wallops, Virginia. The system is intended to support Polar-orbiting satellite programs by incorporating a cassegrain feed, associated electrical and electronic components, and necessary control and signal cabling, including radio frequency or fiber optic cables. A critical aspect of the contract includes the design and integration of a dichroic subreflector, ensuring the new X-band feed does not negatively impact the current antenna's mission capabilities. The contractor is also responsible for addressing any system degradation through link and loss analysis. The project must be completed within 90 days of contract award. All interested and responsible parties are invited to submit proposals; however, solicitation requests must be made in writing via fax or email, as telephone requests will not be accepted. The contract is managed by the Department of Commerce, NOAA office based in Norfolk, Virginia, with Michele M. McCoy serving as the contract specialist. The solicitation was first posted on March 6, 2002, under the reference number EA1330-02-RP-0006.
