The FSC for this is D319 and the NAICS code is 334511 small business size standard is 750. The government intends to award a firm-fixed price purchase order for this requirement. Applanix is the manufacturer of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) - Inertial Navigation Systems that are currently deployed and used on all NOAA hydrographic survey ships, launches and small boats. POSPac Software allows NOAA field units to post-process mission critical three-dimensional inertially-aided GPS data. These data are used to precisely position and orient NOAA survey platforms for hydrographic survey. The accuracy of the post-processed position and orientation information generated via POSPac software provides the highest quality data to be applied to nautical charts. POSPac is designed to exclusively work with the data recorded by the Applanix POSMV units used all NOAA hydrographic vessels. OCS currently owns twelve (12) licenses of POSPac and POSGNSS software that must be kept under annual software maintenance. This provides upgrades and patches that improve or add software functionality, as well as fixing any potential security issues that may arise. Without this maintenance, it is impossible to ensure system specifications are met. Applanix engineers and technicians are uniquely qualified to perform work on the system. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.301(c)(1). Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement or submit a proposal. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received by 11:00am, July 22, 2012 will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed requirement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement in the future. Evidence must be provided of ability to provide the required supplies. Responses to this notice, if any, must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the government. Inquiries will only be accepted via email to Natasha.Wilson@noaa.gov.
