About this IDV

The U.S. Geological Survey awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract to Makai Inc., a small disadvantaged business based in Summerland Key, Florida, on March 11, 2024. This contract, valued at $475,000 with a ceiling through March 31, 2029, procures a fully crewed and equipped research vessel to support coral reef research operations within Dry Tortugas National Park. The vessel must meet specified requirements including a minimum length of 88 feet, capacity for up to eight researchers, accommodations for field work lasting up to 15 days, a minimum operational range of 500 miles, and equipment for scientific diving operations including nitrogen-oxygen mixtures for diving and safety apparatus. The contract anticipates approximately two research trips per year, with vessel operations to commence from Key West/Stock Island, Florida. The funding agency is the U.S. Geological Survey operating under the Office of Acquisitions and Grants, with no small business set-aside applied to this particular award despite the contractor's small business status.

Makai Inc. leverages over 20 years of experience in marine transportation and research support services to fulfill this requirement, drawing from an established track record providing vessel charter services to federal agencies including the National Park Service, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the U.S. Geological Survey. The contractor's vessels are equipped with advanced capabilities for scientific research, including wireless network access and specialized diving support infrastructure. This contract represents part of the U.S. Geological Survey's broader coastal and ocean science initiative, which focuses on monitoring and researching marine ecosystems and species such as coral reefs and sea turtles in Florida coastal waters. Under this indefinite delivery arrangement, the government may issue task orders throughout the five-year performance period to schedule specific research voyages as operational needs arise.
