About this award
This firm fixed-price purchase order contract was awarded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), a civilian federal agency, to Blue Ocean Gear Inc., a small business manufacturer. The $233,964.00 contract is for the purchase of 30 smart buoys, 3 chargers, and 30 annual data and software subscriptions, with a base year and up to 3 option years. The smart buoys are a specialized tracking solution to support NOAA's Northeast Fisheries Science Center and their ropeless fishing gear systems, providing immediate location notifications when the buoys surface. This sole-source award was made under simplified acquisition procedures, as Blue Ocean Gear's smart buoy solution was developed under a prior NOAA grant and determined to be the only product meeting the agency's specific technical requirements. The contract does not have a set-aside designation.
