- Description
- This is a total small business set-a-side. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has a requirement for custom made aluminum solar panel frames and backing plates. The proposed action will be awarded in accordance with FAR 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures. Background: The USGS Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) maintains and operates Volcano Monitoring Systems in Cook Inlet, the Alaska Peninsula and the Aleutian Islands to mitigate hazards to reduce the risks of volcanoes for protection of life, property, and resources. The solar panel�a critical component that powers the Volcano Monitoring System�requires further structural reinforcement against debris-transporting heavy winds, crushing snow loads, and bears that frequently destroy solar panels. AVO has identified the need that by structurally reinforcing the solar panel frames, providing aluminum plates for the panel back and allowing polycarbonate to be securely affixed to panel fronts as necessary will increase the integrity of the solar panel. In addition to reinforcement, the product must also allow for attachment of a panel to 2� aluminum pipes mounted to the exterior of AVO�s existing station enclosures and be ported for mounting hardware and cable way. Absence of these structural reinforcements will compromise the Volcano Monitoring System and jeopardize life and property.
