Harris Corporation has been awarded a contract by the Department of Commerce NOAA to design, develop, test, and implement the ground system for the GOES-R next generation geostationary satellite series. With an estimated total value of 735,794,197 dollars including options, this project aims to support spacecraft launching in 2015 that will significantly enhance satellite imagery clarity and increase atmospheric observations. The resulting ground system will be among the most advanced ever created, focusing on the rapid capture, processing, and distribution of data. A primary objective of the new system is to reduce the information delivery time to operational users to as little as 23 seconds, a substantial improvement over the previous system's one-minute processing time.

Full Description

Show more
Harris Corporation has been selected to develop the ground system that will support NOAA's next generation geostationary satellite series, GOES-R. This new series of spacecraft, set to begin launching in 2015, is expected to double the clarity of today's satellite imagery and provide at least 20 times more atmospheric observations from space. The contract, which has an estimated value of $735,794,197 (inclusive of options), requires Harris to design, develop, test and implement the GOES-R ground system. Once completed, it will be one of the most advanced ground-based, satellite systems ever created. The ground system will capture data from the GOES-R satellites, and process and distribute the information to operational users as fast as 23 seconds, unlike today's ground system, which takes over 1 minute.

NOAAPort Replacement Capabilities
Solicitation # 142083-27-0002
The Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and the National Weather Service (NWS) have issued Request for Information (RFI) No. 142083-27-0002 to conduct market research for the replacement of the legacy NOAAPort Satellite Broadcast Network (SBN). The government is seeking information on innovative, high-reliability distribution capabilities—which could be cloud-based, terrestrial, satellite, or hybrid—to deliver mission-critical weather data to a geographically dispersed user community. The replacement system must support the exchange, ingestion, processing, and distribution of data products and must integrate with the NWS Hydrometeorological Interactive Virtual Environment (HIVE) and the Centralized Integrated Real-Time Repository for Unified Services (CIRRUS) using common internet protocols such as APIs and MQTT. This notice is for planning purposes only and is not a solicitation for award; no funds have been authorized or appropriated for this effort at this time. The NWS intends to deactivate the legacy SBN as early as August 31, 2027, and is requesting industry feedback on technical architectures, cloud migration strategies, security protocols, and rough order of magnitude cost estimates. Interested respondents must submit their responses in Microsoft Word or PDF format to the designated points of contact by October 29, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The government is utilizing this RFI to inform its acquisition strategy and evaluate potential small business set-aside opportunities under NAICS code 541512.
