About this file

This document is a Scope of Work for a Request for Proposals (RFP) issued by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) for GPS tracking collars and associated equipment to be used for mule deer research in eastern Oregon. The project is expected to last at least five years, and ODFW is seeking a single vendor to provide consistent equipment and data collection over the duration of the research efforts. The requested items include adult advanced GPS collars, vaginal implant transmitters, neonate collars, and carnivore GPS collars with various specifications such as satellite communication, mortality sensors, and user-programmable features. The RFP also includes data security requirements, such as data encryption and hosting within the United States.

The pricing for the collars and associated equipment, as well as any software or services, must be provided in the Price Proposal Form. The contract will be awarded to a single vendor, and the research will be conducted in Union County, Oregon. The successful vendor must be able to provide the required equipment and meet the technical specifications outlined in the Scope of Work.
