The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service awarded a firm fixed price sole source contract to Marine Exchange of Alaska, Inc. (MXAK) to provide a geofence upgrade project for the AIS monitoring of walrus haulouts and monitoring for Steller's and spectacled eiders along the Alaskan coastline. The $129,000 contract was awarded under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 for only one responsible source, as MXAK is the only provider capable of integrating compatible equipment and services into the existing Alaska Geofence Project framework. MXAK is a non-profit organization that has previously worked with the agency to provide AIS infrastructure, data access, and related services to support maritime domain awareness and vessel tracking missions in Alaska waters.
