15 TOMIS Current Contract Vehicles Using TOMIS NOAA Coastal Services Center NOAA National Geodetic Survey NOAA Office of Coast Survey NOAA Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services U.S. Geological Survey USDA National Resource Conservation Office

16 TOMIS TOMIS Update Currently in Beta Testing Release anticipated in FY13 Q3 Incorporates lessons learned since inception More Functionality for Contractors Access to more reports Better access to Past Performance Info

17 NOAA CSC Technical Support Services Contract Current contract will expire in September of this year. The competition package is at our Eastern Acquisition Division Expect the RFP within the next 2 to 4 weeks Award in early summer Small Business set-aside and will be on GSA Schedule Contact Contracting Officer with questions melissa.r.sampson@noaa.gov

18 NOAA ProTech Contract NOAA's contracting office is working on this contract for scientific and technical services Expectation is that this contract will take the place of many smaller technical service contracts throughout NOAA Five domains (Fisheries; Meteorological; Oceans and Coastal; Satellites; and Enterprise Solutions) Due to the size and complexity of this contract, exact award date is unknown and no RFP has been released CSC TSS possibly impacted in future The Contracting Officer for ProTech is Michael Blumenfeld

19 National Geodetic Survey Contracts Shoreline Mapping Contract re-compete: - Evaluations of respondents still ongoing. Trying to award this FY. Current Shoreline Mapping Contract: - Expires beginning of March - Options are being considered with possibility of supplemental as well as to meet traditional requirements - Plenty of ceiling on the contract. GRAV-D currently contracting with Fugro to collect Florida

26 Feedback "Thanks for making our jobs easier!" OH Dept of Natural Resources "Digital Coast takes really important data and makes it actionable. Tools provided through the Digital Coast fill a lot of gaps for the have-nots in public safety." National Alliance for Public Safety GIS Foundation "The Digital Coast Partnership is an excellent example of effectively governing a federal initiative with a large stakeholder community." National States Geographic Information Council Every time I go on that site I find something new that I love. My goal is to spend more time promoting NOAA tools in our communities and less time making our own tools. FL Dept of Community Affairs
