The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded a $10M delivery order to Saildrone Inc., a small business specializing in autonomous uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs), for data collection operations in the Southern Ocean. This task order falls under the ProTech 2.0 Fisheries Domain, an $8B multiple-award indefinite delivery contract vehicle that enables NOAA to procure Saildrone's wind and solar-powered autonomous maritime platforms for various scientific and operational missions.
