Pursuant to Revolutionary Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Overhaul (RFO) Part 10 (Market Research), the purpose of this notice is to:
Determine if sources capable of satisfying the agency's requirements exist.
Determine whether the acquisition should utilize any of the small business programs in accordance with RFO Part 19.
Pursuant to RFO Part 12 and RFO Part 19, competition and set-aside decisions may be based on the results of this market research. This notice in no way obligates the Government to any further action.
Requirement: This notice is issued by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Western Acquisition Division (WAD) and the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) to identify sources capable of providing the following:
The government requires the Earthmover platform, a data service that provides quick access for NOAA data users to access very large model output files. These files are specific for the Changing Ecosystems Fisheries Initiative (CEFI) project, produced by the NOAA Modular Ocean Model (MOM) 6 and hosted on NOAA purchased commercial clouds. The Earthmover solution provides unique access to this data much quicker and more efficiently than NOAA can provide with in-house technologies.
REQUIRED TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS:
Configure a NEAP/CEFI data portal against model data that NOAA will provide.
Configure the platform to:
Convert the unstructured Network Common Data Form (NetCDF) files to Icechunk-backed Zarr cloud-native data format hosted on Amazon S3 Storage.
