About this award
The University of Miami's Office of Research (Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science division) was awarded a $8.99M firm fixed-price definitive contract by the Army Southern Command on September 12, 2024, for interferometric synthetic aperture radar (IFSAR) support services. The contract stems from a sole-source procurement special notice issued by the Department of the Army Materiel Command for Center for Southeast Tropical Advanced Remote Sensing (CSTARS) support services. CSTARS is an imaging ground station operated by the University of Miami that processes satellite data, including foreign synthetic aperture radar imagery, to support Department of Defense critical requirements such as counterterrorism and counterinsurgency operations, environmental security activities, and humanitarian assistance and disaster response missions. The procurement was conducted by the 410th Contract Support Brigade Regional Contracting Office in Miami in coordination with United States Southern Command (SOUTHCOM), with no set-aside designation applied.
The contract, which runs through September 11, 2027, represents a continuation of the university's specialized remote sensing and satellite imagery processing capabilities in support of SOUTHCOM's operational needs. The Tritium Laboratory, the University of Miami's parent entity for this contract action, serves as a key research facility providing advanced technical services to federal agencies. The non-competitive procurement was justified based on CSTARS's unique proprietary licenses, algorithms, and processing systems that were unavailable from alternative contractors within the required delivery timeframe, making the University of Miami the sole capable provider for these critical defense-related geospatial intelligence and disaster response applications.
