Tender Details

Vandenberg Space Force Base publishes this notice of intent to award a sole source contract for informational purposes only. The planned contract is for the acquisition of sonic boom acoustic monitoring stations, and for the analysis and reporting of measured acoustic data. This contract would address the requirement to measure and analyze ascent sonic booms and other launch noise through long-term and short-term acoustic monitoring stations, PCBoom Modeling with measured data, and analysis of meteorological data and measured data.
