STATEMENT OF WORK

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)

NOAA FISHERIES

Atlantic and Caribbean Reef Fish (Population and Ecosystems Monitoring Division)

National Coral Reef Monitoring Program Surveys in Florida Vessel for Performing Dive Survey Cruises near the Dry Tortugas

I. Background/Overview:

As part of the National Coral Reef Monitoring Plan (NCRMP), the Southeast Fisheries Science Center (SEFSC) conducts biennial surveys as part of a multi-agency effort to assess the fishes and corals in and around the Dry Tortugas National Park (DRTO) and along the Florida Reef Tract. DRTO is located approximately 70 miles northwest of Key West, Florida and protects one of the healthiest coral reef systems along the Florida Reef Tract. All of the coral reefs in Florida are of great concern from a scientific and management standpoint and are closely monitored by multiple state and federal agencies. The survey is extremely labor intensive with dive teams conducting many dives per leg of this survey. Most areas across Florida are relatively easily accessed; however, at DRTO, there is only minimal infrastructure present, mostly related to National Park Service operations. There is limited to no berthing and no supplies available to vessels in the Dry Tortugas area.

II. Scope of Work Research live-aboard dive cruises to complete reef visual census (fish), coral demographic, and benthic assessment surveys. These data will be incorporated into the database for the National Coral Reef Monitoring program and other state and federal resource monitoring programs.

III. Tasks

Task 1 Berthing and boarding for at least 10 divers for at least 10 consecutive days. One 7 dive day and one 10 dive day cruise are expected for a total quantity of 17 dive days plus one transit day per cruise.

Task 2 At least 3 meals per day must be provided where at least two are “hot” meals prepared on site. Additional snacks (fruit, chips, etc..) must also be available to the divers throughout the day and night.

Task 3 Each diver must be provided with a bunk in a designated berthing area with a covering that limits visibility within the bunk.

Task 4 Vegetarian meals and meals to accommodate food allergies must be provided, if requested at least 2 weeks prior to the start of the mission.

Task 5 As all diving operations must conform to the NOAA diving standards, the vessel(s) must provide an experienced NOAA certified Divemaster, or allow agency personnel (e.g., designated NOAA Divemaster, Dive Safety Officer, or NOAA Unit Dive Supervisor) on the vessel's operational control of all diving operations.

Task 6 Vessel personnel are required to work with the individuals from NOAA to facilitate all dive operations and ensure that they are completed in a manner that conforms with industry standards or NOAA standards. Any concerns in safety by the vessel crew are required to be reported to the NOAA Chief Scientist, Divemaster, or Deck Boss immediately.

Task 7 Provide nitrox air for SCUBA tank fills throughout the diving day without having to cease dive operations. Dive fills or tank swaps +will be completed when a diver removes their 1 st stage from the tank and notifies the designated crew member.

Task 8 The nitrox mix should be 32±2% at least 95% of the time.

Task 9 Air/nitrox used to fill the SCUBA tanks must meet NOAA standards as identified in the most recent Diving Safety Manual. If requested, provide NOAA’s Unit Diving Supervisor for the SEFSC a copy of air quality testing for all the compressors or nitrox systems to be used during the mission. Current air quality must have been tested within the previous 6 months.

Current standards are as follows:

Task 10 Vessel crew shall have experience working with “live-boat” operations as no anchoring will be allowed during diving activities, emergencies excluded. Anchoring may be permitted within designated areas when no dive operations are underway.

Task 11 The vessel must be on location at the first dive location of the day and available for dive operations from 0730 to 1800.

Task 12 The vessel will provide experienced dive personnel on-site for the entirety of the cruise familiar with the vessel operations and emergency plans.

Task 13 The vessel must provide all standard dive-safety equipment required for chartered dive operations as per US Coast Guard. There must be a sufficient quantity of oxygen to supply one diver for the time required to transport them to a higher-level medical care facility or 12 hours whichever is less.

Task 14 The vessel must provide deck space to accommodate required NOAA provided safety equipment, approximately 50ft 2 .

Task 15 Vessel(s) must have 120V AC power and provide an area to accommodate the set-up by the research team of a portable, vessel-wide wireless network system for the duration of the mission. All divers must be able access the wireless network at any time dive operations are not occurring.

Task 16 The vessel must be provisioned with appropriate first-aid and medical supplies including adequate supplies to provide basic medical support for animal bites, common injuries (including slips, trips, falls, sprains, strains) and illness (including seasickness, common cold, food borne illness, etc.) and at least one Automated External Defibrillator (AED) unit.

IV. Period of Performance

Cruises are expected to occur between May 15 th and September 30 th during this 2024 survey year. Scheduling will be dependent upon time of year (weather), SEFSC schedule, and contractor’s schedule.

V. Place of Performance

All of the above tasks will be performed either at the berthing location, along the route from the berthing location to the DRTO, in the waters near or around the DRTO, Aboard the contracted vessel and at port while loading/unloading the vessel.

VI. Deliverable Schedule

1. Cruise scheduling can be adjusted to fit the operator's schedule; however, all cruises must be completed between May 15, 2024 and September 30, 2024.2. The contractor will make the vessel available for loading at least 4 hours prior to departure.

3. Weather dependent, at least 90% of meals should be provided within one hour of the following times: Breakfast- 0630, Lunch- 1200, Dinner-1900.

4. Vessel must be ready each day for diving operations within 30 minutes of the daily agreed upon start time. This will be approximately 0730; however, it will be dependent on time of year (available light) and the sampling schedule for the day.

VII. Government-Furnished Resources

52.212-2 Evaluation- Commercial Products and Commercial Services (Nov 2021)

Offers will be evaluated based on price and the factors set forth in paragraph (a).

The evaluation will consider the Non-Price Technical Solutions to be significantly more important than price. However, as quotes are determined to be more equal in the non-price evaluation factor, price becomes more important and may become the determining factor for award. If, at any stage of the evaluation, all vendors are determined to have submitted equal, or virtually equal, Non-Price Technical Solutions, price could become the factor in determining which vendor will receive the award.

The Government intends to evaluate the quotes and award a purchase order based on the Offeror’s initial quote; therefore, the Offeror’s initial quote should contain the Offeror’s best terms from a Non- Price Technical Solution and price standpoint.

The Government reserves the right not to award a purchase order depending on the quality of the quote(s) submitted and the availability of funds. Furthermore, the Government may waive informalities and minor irregularities or omissions in quotes received.

The Government may make award to other than the lowest-priced Offeror or the Offeror with the highest technical rating if the Contracting Officer determines that to do so would result in the best value to the Government. The Government will not make an award at a significantly higher overall price to achieve only slightly superior performance capability.

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation will be most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered.

Paragraph (a) is hereby completed as follows: Evaluation will be based on the following:

Factor 1--TECHNICAL APPROACH. The quotation will be evaluated on how the offer or intends to organize, staff and manage the contract, the Vessel and means that will be used to accomplish the contract requirements. The degree to which the quotation demonstrates an understanding of the requirements will be evaluated, as well as the offeror's planned management of consultants and subcontractors, if applicable. The contractor submission shall include any of the following applicable documents with their package:

o USCG Letter of Designation (LOD o USCG Certificate of Inspection (COI) o Copies of all Merchant Mariner Credentials for the Master as well as credentials for an additional operator for voyages longer than 12 hours (personal data such as address can be blanked out) o USCG Uninspected Passenger Vessel Examinations (UPV)

Factor 2--EXPERIENCE. The offeror's background, experience, and qualifications will be assessed to determine the likelihood that that offeror can successfully perform the contract requirements and the degree of the risk of non-performance.

Factor 3--COST/PRICE. The proposed prices/costs will be evaluated. The cost evaluation will determine whether the proposed costs are realistic, complete, and reasonable in relation to the solicitation requirements. Proposed costs must be entirely compatible with the technical approach.

The Government intends to award a trade-off, single firm fixed-price purchase order on an all or none basis with payment terms of Net 30.

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

(c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer’s specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
