About this opportunity

The U.S. Geological Survey, Office of Acquisition and Grants is seeking information from qualified vendors that can supply Acoustic-Doppler 2 MHz 2D horizontal profilers, one 1 MHz frequency and one 2 MHz frequency, with specific technical requirements. The profilers must have two horizontal acoustic beams with 50 or more measurement cells, an internal 0-10m pressure sensor, internal tilt sensor, internal compass, PUV Wave burst collection capability, and a noise filter. The purpose is to determine if there are businesses capable of fulfilling this requirement for deployment in various rivers and canyons. Interested parties may contact the Contracting Officer, Victor Nuno, by the due date of April 17, 2024 at 12:00pm ET.

This is a pre-solicitation notice and not a commitment by the government to award a contract. There is no set-aside designation provided. The relevant NAICS code is likely 334511 (Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing) and the PSC code could be 6615 (Meteorological Instruments and Apparatus). No potential incumbents or award values are specified, but the government is seeking to procure an unspecified quantity of the specialized acoustic-Doppler profilers.

Notice text



This Request For Information is for information and planning purposes only and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. No contract will be awarded as a result of this Sources Sought announcement. The United States Geological Survey, Office of Acquisition and Grants is soliciting information from qualified sources; the results of this announcement will be evaluated to determine if there are businesses capable of fulfilling this requirement.



The U.S. Geological Survey, Grand Canyon Monitoring and Research Center is in search of vendors that can supply Acoustic-Doppler 2 MHz 2D horizontal profilers, one 1 MHz frequency and one 2 MHz frequency, with 2 acoustic beams, pressure sensor, compass, tilt sensor, noise filter, PUV Wave burst collection capability, and 16GB of internal datalogging. The Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler must have the following specifications: Two horizontal acoustic beams with 50 or more measurement cells, internal 0-10m pressure sensor, internal tilt sensor, internal compass, PUV Wave burst collection capability, and a noise filter to reduce night-time noise levels.

To our knowledge, these instruments are the only low-noise sideways-looking acoustic-Doppler profilers on the market that include an internal compass and PUV wave-burst collection capability that is compatible with our existing acoustical suspended-sediment-measurement deployments in Grand Canyon, Dinosaur, Canyonlands, Big Bend, upper Rio Grande, and Chippewa River, and data-processing methodologies (published in multiple peer-reviewed science articles)



For further information, interested parties may contact the Contracting Officer, Victor Nuno, electronically at vnuno@usgs.gov by the due date, April 17, 2024, by 12:00pm ET.
