About this opportunity
The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) within the Department of the Interior has issued a Special Notice regarding their intent to sole source a contract for deep sea mining technology assessment. BOEM plans to negotiate directly with Mitre Corporation to provide technical analysis and advisory services on deep-sea mining technologies and techniques. This contract will specifically support the leasing process for seabed minerals offshore American Samoa and is categorized under management consulting services. The notice serves as advance notification to the contracting community of BOEM's intention to proceed with sole source procurement rather than open competition. The contract will be awarded under FAR Part 15 Contracting by Negotiation procedures.
The primary objective of this contract is to inform BOEM's leasing and environmental review processes while supporting future decisions regarding critical mineral exploration in deep-sea environments. Interested firms may submit capability statements, quotations, or proposals by September 9, 2025 at 1:00 PM Eastern time to demonstrate their qualifications for this type of technical analysis work. All submissions must be sent via email to Stacey.Ellingsen@bsee.gov and reference contract number 140M0125Q0035 in the subject line. The government retains full discretion to determine whether to compete this effort based on the responses received from potential contractors. This notice explicitly states it is not a formal Request for Proposal, and telephone inquiries will not be accepted or returned.
