Indefinite Delivery Contract 140G0319D0007

This is a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) awarded by the U.S. Department of the Interior's Office of Acquisitions and Grants to Ceiba Adventures Inc., a small business river outfitter based in Flagstaff, Arizona. The contract, with a ceiling value of $3,830,000 and an ultimate completion date of November 30, 2024, provides logistical support services for boat operators and field technicians in support of the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) scientific research and monitoring activities along the Colorado River ecosystem within Grand Canyon and Glen Canyon National Parks. Ceiba Adventures has extensive experience providing specialized services such as boat operations, scientific data collection, environmental monitoring, and logistics support for federal agencies conducting complex river missions. The contract includes multiple firm fixed-price delivery orders ranging from $518,138 to $903,660, with the most recent award in August 2024 to extend the period of performance and add additional funding.

The original solicitation, which was set aside for 100% small business participation, sought a contractor to provide expertise in operating and navigating government-owned research boats and equipment, qualified field technicians for science projects, and all necessary support services to conduct efficient and safe river trips. The USGS, through its Grand Canyon Monitoring and Research Center in Flagstaff, conducts approximately 20-30 river trips annually on the Colorado River for a variety of research and monitoring activities. This IDC enables Ceiba Adventures to serve as the prime contractor in delivering these critical logistical support services to the USGS over the multi-year period of performance.
