- The NESDIS Acquisition Division intends to issue a modification against existing contract number 50-DDNE-1-90001 awarded to Americom Government Services of McLean, Virginia as a change order to provide for a back-up Ku-band service on the AMC4 domestic satellite (DOMSAT). This requirement is to provide and install the antenna, transmit/receive equipment, and real-time monitoring and switching between NOAA's existing operational AGS DOMSAT service at Wallops Island, Virginia and this back-up service Satellite Operations Control Center (SOCC) at Suitland, Maryland. This action is being issued pursuant to FAR 6.302-1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. The back-up DOMSAT service will re-use the identical AGS frequency, transponder and satellite. There is no additional need for additional bandwidth provided under this contract. Americom now provides NOAA with data relay services at C- and Ku-band for the transfer of operational environmental data between its operational facilities and with U. S. Government agencies that are users of the data. Interested parties having the capabilities to provide this service to the should submit their capabilities via email within 9 days of this notice. If no responses are received it is the Govenment's intent to negotiate and award a sole source contract with Americom Government Services will be pursued without further notice. The Government believes that no other source can fulfill the requirements. No contract will be awarded from offers received in response to this notice, but offers received will be used to determine if a comparable source is available.
