About this award

The Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded a $230,154.00 firm fixed-price purchase order contract to Blue Ocean Gear Inc., a small business, to provide 45 Farallon smart buoys, 3 chargers, and 45 data subscriptions, with options for up to 30 additional units per year. The smart buoys are designed to work with ropeless fishing systems, providing fishermen with alerts and coordinates to locate and retrieve submerged gear, helping to address concerns regarding ropeless fishing in closed areas. This contract was awarded on a sole-source basis, as NOAA determined that Blue Ocean Gear is the sole entity in the United States capable of providing the required smart buoy technology, which was developed under a previous NOAA grant. The contract has a completion date of March 31, 2025 and does not include a set-aside designation.
