About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service awarded a $38,108 firm fixed-price purchase order to Innovasea Systems, Inc. for the manufacture and delivery of 234 custom plastic tank lid inserts for the National Cold Water Marine Aquaculture Center in Orono, Maine. The lids are engineered to prevent salmon from escaping containment tanks while allowing feed to pass through unobstructed to the fish below. Per the solicitation specifications, the inserts must be fabricated from durable ABS or HDPE plastic, capable of withstanding a three-foot drop onto concrete, and designed to be easily washable and safe for aquatic environments. Two design options were specified: circular lids measuring 12.5 inches tall with a 20.25-inch diameter opening, or rectangular lids measuring 24.5 by 17 inches, both featuring tapered profiles for storage stacking and supporting flanges for secure fit.

This contract was awarded on August 28, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2025, and was procured as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 326199 (All Other Plastics Product Manufacturing).

The awardee has demonstrated expertise across federal agencies including the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and U.S. Geological Survey, providing specialized aquaculture equipment and monitoring systems. Vendor submissions were required to include shop drawings and prototypes for USDA approval prior to full-scale production.
