The Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded a $130,000.00 firm fixed price purchase order to Advanced Telemetry Systems Inc., a veteran-owned small business, for the delivery of 20 VHF receivers. This award was a sole source procurement, as Advanced Telemetry Systems Inc. was determined to be the sole provider of the required proprietary pulse-coded radio telemetry receivers and loggers compatible with existing NOAA Marine Mammal Lab projects. The equipment will be used to support wildlife monitoring and ecological research programs conducted by NOAA.
