The Notice seeks to increase the existing Edgeone LLC contract value from $2,997,325 to $3,702,925 to provide additional systems through June 2027.
The purpose is to obtain additional systems from Edgeone LLC, the only known vendor that can meet the need to further research efforts aiding the development of fishing restrictions to protect whales as required by law. Interested parties could submit statements of interest and capabilities by April 11, 2023. Edgeone LLC is justified as the sole source able to provide identical equipment to support devices already owned and tested by NOAA, as they have demonstrated timely delivery and responsiveness in addressing fishermen feedback to influence improvements and further the agency's initiative to develop new fishing restrictions through operational testing of buoyless/ropeless systems.
