About this vehicle
The U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) awarded a Master IDIQ for Earthquake and Volcano Monitoring Systems on April 5, 2016, with an ordering period that closed on July 17, 2021. The vehicle is no longer active; ordering ceased nearly five years ago. The shared ceiling was $15 million.
USGS issued 87 task orders under the vehicle between June 2016 and December 2018, obligating the full $14.8 million combined potential value. Order activity peaked in 2017 with 41 awards, declining to 23 orders in both 2016 and 2018. The most recent task order was awarded in December 2018. All task orders were unrestricted competitive awards with firm fixed pricing.
The competitive base is highly concentrated. Nanometrics Inc. and Kinemetrics Inc. together dominate the vehicle: Nanometrics holds 37 orders valued at $7.7 million combined potential value, while Kinemetrics holds 38 orders valued at $6.9 million. These two firms account for the vast majority of all awards. Trimble Inc. received 8 orders totaling $204 thousand, and Silicon Audio Seismic, LLC received 4 orders totaling $54 thousand; all remaining activity flows to these four primes.
USGS was the sole customer agency, placing all 87 orders to support earthquake and volcano monitoring infrastructure. Task orders ranged widely in value, from under $1 thousand to approximately $1.7 million (Nanometrics order ING16PC00039-140G0218F0359, obligated at $1.7 million for Puerto Rico equipment following Hurricane Maria). The majority of orders were in the low-to-mid five-figure range, purchasing seismometers, accelerometers, digital recorders, cables, and related field instrumentation for monitoring networks operated by USGS and partner academic institutions, with specific mentions of orders supporting Early Earthquake Warning (EEW) programs at UC Berkeley, University of Washington, and Caltech, as well as monitoring efforts at Cascade Volcano Observatory and Alaska Volcano Observatory.
