AI Contract Overview
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has issued a Notice of Intent to negotiate a sole-source contract for the design and production of up to 21 Solid State Power Amplifiers (SSPAs), also known as transmitters. These components are essential for a new Vertically Scanning Doppler Radar (VSRD) system to be integrated into NOAA's C-130J aircraft fleet. The required transmitters must generate a 12KW peak transmit power, which is approximately 50% greater than current systems, and utilize liquid cooling to maintain safe operating temperatures. Additionally, the units must be hardened for standard environmental stress conditions and support remote control for complete operational monitoring without requiring pod access during flight routes. NOAA intends to award this requirement on a sole-source basis to Stellant Systems, Inc., citing their proprietary ownership of the necessary specifications, drawings, and schematics for the transmitter subsystem. While this notice is not a formal solicitation, the government is inviting other capable parties to submit capability statements for consideration. Interested entities must email their statements to the Contract Specialist, Jennifer Peters, by August 26, 2026, at 10:00 AM ET. The procurement is expected to utilize a simplified procedure for requirements up to $9 million.
