Specifications MTCWRU – Travel Trailer
Statement of Need
The USGS Montana Cooperative Research Unit (MTCWRU) in Missoula, Montana is requesting a pull-behind, two-axle travel trailer to support mission-critical research and field data collection in remote locations where traditional lodging is unavailable. This equipment is essential to fulfilling USGS mission functions, which include providing timely, reliable information to decision-makers and resource managers to help protect the life, health, and safety of the American public.
The requested trailer will enhance the Unit’s ability to conduct fieldwork efficiently, enabling the collection, processing, monitoring, reporting, and dissemination of scientific data in a timely manner. It also supports the Unit’s obligations to state wildlife agencies to provide critical research to inform the management of wildlife species. Specifically, this trailer will support ongoing wildlife disease research contributing to the advancement of One Health efforts including safeguarding the health of humans, domestic animals, and wildlife. Additionally, the Unit conducts research gathering critical information to inform the management of threatened species such as grizzly bears with hopes of their recovery and delisting. In making this procurement decision, USGS considered alignment with DOI IT Transformation goals, alternative solutions, bandwidth and IT security impacts, portability, interoperability, and life cycle requirements.
