About this award
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded a $63,182 firm fixed-price purchase order to the University of North Carolina at Wilmington (UNCW) on July 18, 2025, for HABCAM recovery operations using a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) aboard the research vessel R/V Bigelow in July 2025. This contract, which carries an ultimate completion date of August 18, 2025, was not designated as a set-aside and will be performed in Newport, Rhode Island. The work involves the recovery of the HABCAM (Habitat Mapping Camera) system, a specialized underwater imaging and mapping platform critical to NOAA's marine research and ecosystem monitoring initiatives.
UNCW, a public research university with extensive experience in marine science and oceanographic research, is well-positioned to execute this mission based on its established track record with NOAA in ROV operations and underwater data collection along the outer continental shelf. The university's Office of Sponsored Programs and Research Compliance will manage the contract, leveraging UNCW's technical expertise in complex marine environments to successfully retrieve and recover the HABCAM equipment. This purchase order represents additional funding to support ongoing marine research operations under NOAA's broader ocean exploration and mapping programs.
