Description
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)/Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) plans to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Geostationary Extended Observations (GeoxO) Program. This new procurement is for the implementation phase of the GeoxO Ocean Color (OCx) instrument.
The Ocean Color (OCx) is a hyperspectral, UV through infrared, passive imaging radiometer used to measure environmental data as part of a 3-axis stabilized, geostationary weather satellite system. Ocean color observations from geostationary orbit will provide critical data for ecological forecasters, marine resource managers, fisheries, health departments, water treatment managers, and the commerce, recreation and tourism industries. OCx will provide daily observations of ocean biology, chemistry, and ecology to assess ocean productivity, ecosystem change, coast and inland water quality, and hazards like harmful algal blooms. The instrument will track and assist in the response to climate-driven ocean and coastal ecosystem changes. Geostationary ocean color observations are also critical to maintaining U.S. leadership in science-based fisheries management, improving yield and reducing bycatch. High spatial and temporal resolution OCx observations will be an improvement over those offered by contemporary low-earth orbiting ocean color sensors. From its position in geostationary orbit, OCx will view ocean and coastal conditions in real time and greatly improve the chance of cloud-free observations of areas of interest.
This procurement will be conducted as a full and open competition. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code and Size Standard are 336414 and 1250 employees, respectively.
It is anticipated that this competitive procurement will result in a Cost-Plus-Award-Fee (CPAF) hardware contract that will consist of parts and materials for an Engineering Development Model (EDM)-if proposed and agreed to by the Government and fou...
