AI Contract Overview

The U.S. Department of Commerce, through the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), intends to enter into a sole source contract with the University of California to conduct specialized environmental measurements at the Isle of Shoals in the Gulf of Maine. This work supports the New England Air Quality Study and involves deploying both active long path and passive multi-axis Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS) systems to gather atmospheric data. The collected information will be analyzed and subsequently published in peer-reviewed journals. The contract is set to cover the period from June 1, 2004, through May 31, 2005, with an anticipated award date of April 22, 2004. NOAA's market research indicates that the University of California is uniquely qualified to perform these measurements, and no other U.S. research institution currently possesses the necessary capabilities, justifying the sole source procurement under simplified acquisition procedures not exceeding $100,000. This procurement will proceed without competitive solicitation, although responses to this notice may be considered to assess if competitive procedures are warranted. The contract is managed by NOAA’s office in Seattle, Washington, with Michelle A. Sandoval as the purchasing agent to contact for related inquiries. Terms and conditions adhere to federal acquisition regulations and agency protest procedures, with full documentation available upon request.
