Description

The United States Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) intends to solicit, negotiate and award on a sole source basis a purchase order with RM Young Company for the procurement of fifty (50) RM Young Anemometers for the National Weather Service (NWS), National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) at Stennis Space Center, MS.

The Government intends to utilize the authority under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1(b)(1), Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services will satisfy agency requirements, unless, as a result of this announcement, acceptable responses to this notice are received and a determination is made by the Government to issue a competitive solicitation. The Government intends to award a purchase order to RM Young Company for the procurement of proprietary Anemometers for the NWS, NDBC Division based on their compatibility in form, fit and function with already existing systems.

Sole Source Justification

The SCOOP and the coastal land-based weather stations (CMAN) were designed around the selection of the R.M. Young propeller anemometers. The anemometers must mount on a standard one-inch pipe. The SCOOP and CMAN data acquisition systems have firmware algorithms and constants to convert the propeller anemometer outputs to wind speed and wind direction. The wind direction is transmitted by a 10K ohm precision conductive potentiometer. With a constant voltage applied to the potentiometer, the output signal is an analog voltage directly proportional to wind direction angle. The RM Young propeller wind monitors technology uses magnetic induction for measuring wind speed which requires no energy input. The magnetic induction on the model 05108 Wind Monitors produce a wind speed signal in the form of and AC sine wave signal that reflects an output of 0.166 m/s per Hz signal. Further, no power is required to be provided to the Wind Monitor to obtain the wind speed. E...
