About this award

NOAA awarded a purchase order to Aqua Wildlife Research (Tamara Mcguire, a woman-owned small business) on September 30, 2026, for $398,000 (firm-fixed-price) to conduct a non-severable Cook Inlet Beluga Whale Photo Identification Study. The order is set-aside for woman-owned small business concerns.

Performance is based in Anchorage, Alaska, with field work conducted in Cook Inlet via boat and shore-based surveys. The base period runs two non-severable 12-month periods (September 30, 2026 through September 29, 2028), with three optional one-year extensions. Year 1 focuses on field season data collection; Year 2 covers documentation, data analysis, and report production. The contractor must conduct at least 14 photo-identification surveys during the 2027 field season, integrate new and government-provided imagery into the existing Cook Inlet Beluga Whale Photo-ID Project catalog, and produce peer-review quality reports on survival, mortality, anthropogenic trauma, habitat use, distribution, movement patterns, reproductive characteristics, and demographics. The Principal Investigator must hold a graduate degree in marine mammalogy or related field with extensive documented experience leading long-term beluga photographic identification studies.
