No solicitation document exists at this time. Issuance of this notice does not constitute any obligation on the part of the Government to procure these items or services or to issue a solicitation. In addition, the Government is under no obligation to pay for information submitted in response to this Source Sought notice, and responses to this notice cannot be accepted as offers. Any information that the vendor considers proprietary should be clearly marked as such. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Weather Service (NWS), and National Reconditioning Center (ROC), located in Grandview, MO is conducting market research seeking information regarding capabilities for an indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contact (IDIQ) to repair the Differential Planetary Gearbox for the NEXRAD. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) National Weather Service (NWS) operates 158 Next Generation Weather Radars (NEXRAD) across the country. These gearboxes are used within those 158 NEXRAD sites. The NEXRAD radars provide the capability to detect severe weather and give weather observers and forecasters the ability to issue early warnings to the general public and aviation users. The gearbox is used to move the antenna dish in the horizontal direction or vertical direction while supporting the full weight of the antenna. Failure of the gearbox would prevent movement of the antenna and eliminate the radar’s ability to detect severe weather. There are currently 3 units in stock with a weekly issue rate of .1 (about 33.3 weeks of stock). The average repair turn-around time is 290 days. The NWS is seeking vendor capabilities for a potential 5 year IDIQ that would involve repairing the subject gearboxes. Capability statements shall clearly show an understanding and compliance with the attachment Statement of Work (SOW), including but not limited to, certifications to repair the subject gearboxes.
