View moreThe United States Coast Guard intends to award a five-year sole-source indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract to Pole Star Space Applications Inc. for Long Range Identification Tracking (LRIT) National Data Center (NDC) services. This requirement includes the provision of an NDC system with an Application Service Provider user interface, conformance testing for all U.S. flagged vessels subject to International Maritime Organization agreements, and the integration of those vessels into the Coast Guard’s LRIT system. The contractor will provide data services, including position reports and 24/7 customer support for system troubleshooting and transmission failure reporting. Additional deliverables involve maintaining a pre-production testing environment for software updates, transmitting system status messages every thirty minutes, and managing the reconciliation of data agreements for foreign flag position purchases.
This pre-solicitation notice, identified by solicitation number 70Z02320RPR600200, is classified under NAICS 488330 Navigational Services to Shipping and PSC DA10 IT and Telecom - Business Application/Application Development Software as a Service. The Coast Guard’s rationale for the sole-source award is based on the vendor’s unique qualifications as the incumbent provider and the results of a February 2020 request for information, which identified no other capable sources. While the agency intends to issue the award on September 1, 2020, responsible sources may submit capability statements or proposals by the August 7, 2020, deadline for agency consideration.
Operations will be conducted in the United States, with oversight provided by the Coast Guard’s Headquarters Contract Operations office. The project encompasses managing data purchasing arrangements with foreign NDCs and contracting governments to enable data transfer and invoicing on behalf of the United States. Allen Alfred Tillman II serves as the point of contact for this requirement. At the time of publication, there are no attachments associated with this notice.
