Contract C6A738

The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) awarded contract C6A738 on January 8, 2026, with a total contract value of $7,000.00 for aquatic metabarcoding mifish diet reconstruction services. The contract is structured for 78 individual service units, priced at $89.7436 per unit, and is scheduled for completion by June 30, 2026.

The contract stipulates that payment will be rendered upon DEP's acceptance of services and receipt of an itemized invoice, with provisions for partial payments. Critical performance terms include mandatory service quality standards, whereby the contractor must re-perform any unsatisfactory work at no additional cost to the Department. Failure to deliver acceptable services may result in non-payment or potential contract termination. The specific scientific service appears to involve detailed dietary analysis of shark populations using metabarcoding genetic techniques, suggesting a specialized research or environmental monitoring objective.
