Documentation of technical expertise must be presented in sufficient detail for the Government to determine that your company possesses the necessary functional area expertise and experience to fulfill the governments requirement. Background The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has a requirement to purchase earthquake and volcano monitoring systems, including integrated systems (containing both sensors and data acquisition units (DAUs)) and systems comprised of separate DAUs and sensors (either strong motion sensors or broadband sensors). This equipment will be used in the Advanced National Seismic System (ANSS), the Global Seismographic Network (GSN), and the USGS Volcano Program to serve the needs of earthquake and volcano monitoring, engineering, and research communities as well as national, state, and local governments, emergency response organizations, and the general public. Applications of these devices may include urban and rural free-field and reference sites, and other types of networks, such as volcano monitoring and broadband networks. Specifications Note: The systems must be existing, upgraded, or improved versions of models which can be purchased ¿off-the-shelf ¿ and of a type or types that have been utilized in previous deployments for periods of not less than six (6) months. The required instrumentation systems consist of three components: (1) a triaxial force-balance accelerometer, triaxial strong-motion velocity seismometer, or triaxial broadband seismometer (the ¿sensor ¿); (2) a DAU, and (3) software for communicating with deployed units. When the DAU and sensor are integrated into a single package, the system is called a DAS (Data Acquisition System). These specifications are organized by sensor, DAU, environmental and packaging issues that apply to both sensors and DAUs, software, and additional requirements. The scope of this action includes the requirement to provide all of the instrumentation components which includes but may not be limited to cables, connectors, related accessories and ancillary equipment. Software must be included with all DAUs and DASs if required for data acquisition. Additional information and specifications can be found in the following attachments.
