Continental U.S. Lightning Data Provision (Stroke-Level)The contract pertains to the supply of archived stroke-level lightning data covering the continental United States, specifically focused on cloud-to-ground and in-cloud lightning events, intended for use in satellite calibration and advanced atmospheric research. The data will be provided under a sole-source 8(a) subcontract, designated for small businesses owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, reflecting a set-aside under FAR 19.8. This procurement is managed by the NASA Shared Services Center on behalf of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, with the NAICS code 511210 indicating it falls under data processing and information services, underscoring the technical nature of the data delivery and management requirements. The solicitation was posted on July 31, 2026, with proposals due by August 5, 2026, indicating a short turnaround window typical for specialized data contracts. The performance location is not explicitly defined, but the data must cover the entire continental United States and be accessible for calibration and research purposes by NASA teams. The purpose is not general data archiving but targeted scientific use, requiring high accuracy, temporal resolution, and metadata integrity to support sensor validation and atmospheric modeling. No point of contact is listed, implying the process may be handled through automated systems or designated procurement channels, consistent with NASA's shared service model.
