- Description
- The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Central Region Hazards Team, Advanced National Seismic Network (ANSS) Project is working towards improving the completeness, reliability, and timeliness of seismic information available from the National Earthquake Information Center (NEIC), which acts as the national operation center for the ANSS Program. This effort requires custom real-time programming of the field processors (at the stations) and interface software at cooperating data centers, handling telemetry on satellite and terrestrial links under IP and legacy protocols, and acquiring, processing, managing, archiving, and distributing data at the NEIC. This task is significantly complicated by the fact that a variety of different types of stations (using different types of data acquisition systems) are received in real-time either directly or mediated by a variety of data center hardware and software and received over various private and public wide area computer networks. The contractor works independently on systems that are very complex to analyze, plan, program, and operate. Participates in all phases of planning, system design, prototyping, development, testing, documentation, and software maintenance. Develops general data management and scientific/engineering analysis applications and real-time data acquisition and process control applications. Develops, supports and interfaces with highly specialized real-time field data acquisition software. Participates in the monitoring and maintenance of applications and systems software to ensure maximum up time of existing and newly developed software in an active operational environment. Provides limited system support including hardware fault recovery and the installation of new layered systems software packages. All work will be performed on Compaq Alpha computers running under the Open VMS operating system, DEC LSI-11 computers running under the RT-11 operating system, Motorola 68000 VME Bus based systems running under the OS-9 operating system, Sun computers running under the Solaris (UNIX) operating system, and Intel based PCs running under the Windows NT and Windows 2000 operating systems. All work will be done at the NEIC within 100-150 hours per month, beginning at the date of award (est. to be o/a September 15, 2003), and shall continue through twelve months with two one-year option periods. The solicitation can be found at the following web address: http://ideasec.nbc.gov/. No hard copies of the solicitation will be available. Telephone requests for the RFP will not be accepted. The proposed contract is 100% set aside for Small Business Concerns. The Northern American Industry Classification System (NAICS) for this project is 541512. See Numbered Note 1.
