About this award
The Naval Air Warfare Center awarded a $300,000 firm fixed-price purchase order to the University of California San Diego's Scripps Institution of Oceanography for wave monitoring buoy support services through September 30, 2027. The contract, awarded on January 29, 2026, represents a renewal of the incumbent provider's ongoing obligations to supply continuous ocean condition monitoring capabilities for the Sea Range to support live-fire test programs at China Lake, California. This non-set-aside procurement was justified under FAR 6.302.1 as a sole-source award, with the government determining that the specialized, continuous measurement requirements and need for uninterrupted, high-quality ocean data services could only be reliably provided by the existing vendor without compromising accuracy, reliability, and schedule performance.
Scripps Institution of Oceanography, operating through its Coastal Data Information Program division in La Jolla, California, brings substantial expertise in oceanographic research infrastructure and marine environmental monitoring to this engagement. The institution leverages its extensive scientific capabilities, research vessels, specialized laboratories, and multidisciplinary team to support federal defense and civilian agencies across numerous mission-critical areas. As a world-renowned center for ocean and earth science research and a registered 1862 Land Grant College, Scripps has established itself as an essential partner for advancing the nation's scientific and defense capabilities, with a robust portfolio of prior federal contract and grant awards spanning oceanography, climate science, geophysics, and marine observing systems.
