This federal contract award was made by the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Office of Land and Emergency Management to Airborne Aspect, Inc., a for-profit company that provides specialized airborne data collection services. The work falls under the ASPECT Response Services Contract and involves the deployment of the ASPECT system to acquire and process environmental data at various locations to support the EPA's programmatic activities.
The $2,216,825.02 delivery order has a time and materials pricing type and an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2021. This award is part of a larger $15.8 million indefinite delivery contract that establishes a vehicle through December 2027 for the EPA to issue task orders for environmental monitoring, sampling, and airborne data collection using Airborne Aspect's aircraft and resources. A previous $3.6 million bridge contract provided similar services through 2022. These contracts demonstrate the EPA's ongoing reliance on Airborne Aspect's specialized airborne capabilities to rapidly acquire critical environmental data to support the agency's land management and emergency response missions.
