- Description
- NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT FOR SATELLITE CALIBRATION RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. The Naval Research Laboratory intends to award a contract on the basis of other than full-and-open competition to SRI International, Menlo Park, CA, for continuation and consolidation of research, experimentation and engineering efforts into low frequency high power satellite calibration using the 150-foot antenna system located at Stanford University. Though the Naval Research Laboratory owns the antenna system and corresponding hardware, SRI International has a long-term contract/lease agreement with Stanford University for use of the property on which the antenna facility is located. The contractor shall provide all personnel, facilities, materials and services to conduct experiments for: (a) generation of highly precise pulses to be transmitted from the antenna system, (b) transforming generated pulses into RF energy to be transmitted from the antenna dish in support of atmospheric research and satellite calibration, and (c) analysis and signal development that will result in generation of RF energy, which will be collected and analyzed by DOD spacecraft and aircraft for space research. The intent of these experiments is to produce RF energy at low frequency and high power to be collected by various DoD platforms. The contractor shall precisely target narrow-beam high-power generated RF signals to centimeter-sized targets in a manner that assures zero-percent signal spillage to other vehicles in proximity to the target. The anticipated award will be a follow-on contract for the continued provision of highly specialized research and development efforts. Vendors who feel capable of providing the services stated above shall fully identify their interests and submit written data, capability statements or other verifiable documentation that demonstrates conclusively their capabilities to meet the stated requirements at the required antenna site within 15 days after publication of this synopsis. Responses received after 15 days or without the required documentation will be determined non-responsive to the synopsis, and will not be considered.
