DESCRIPTION: The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) (1), with Spectracom, to expand the current GPS simulator (Spectracom GSG-5) to simulate a minimum of 16 satellites simultaneously.  The feature should allow support for future expansion of other constellations including but not limited to GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou.   

 

 

***** Sole source determination is based on the need to upgrade the existing Spectracom

GSG-5 system.  The firmware upgrade is the only cost effective option that leverages use of the existing equipment and software.  The upgrade is also more time efficient as the team has already had the training and experience with the device over the past year.

 

*****The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334511- Search detection, navigation, guidance, aeronautical, and navigable system and instrument manufacturing.

 

****** A determination by the Government whether to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.  Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.

 

*****Interested parties that believe they could satisfy the requirements listed above for NIST may clearly and unambiguously identify their capability to do so in writing on or before the response date for this notice. This notice of intent is not a solicitation.  Any questions regarding this notice must be submitted in writing via email to Brian Jamieson at [email protected].  All responses to this notice of intent must be submitted so that they are received at [email protected] no later than July 27, 2017 at 3:00 PM Eastern Time.
