About this opportunity
The U.S. Department of the Interior, Joint Administrative Operations, on behalf of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, intends to sole-source a purchase order to Sea Reach Ltd. for fabrication and installation of Phase 1 interpretive exhibits at the Tule Lake National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center in Tulelake, California, with anticipated award on or about September 19, 2026.
The scope includes final production preparation, fabrication, delivery, and installation of exterior welcome and orientation exhibits and interior refuge history exhibits, with English- and Spanish-language audio description, an interactive touchscreen, system testing, staff training, and project closeout materials. Sea Reach performed design work directly with refuge staff through multiple revisions during visitor center construction. The Contracting Officer has documented that award to another vendor would require substantial duplication of efforts and costs, and the Government does not reasonably expect competition to produce meaningful savings sufficient to offset this duplicated effort. This acquisition proceeds under simplified procedures under FAR Part 12, with the determination that only one source is reasonably available documented per FAR 12.102(a).
Responsible sources may submit pricing and supporting capability information by 10:00 p.m. Central Time on September 19, 2026, to Tanner Frank, Contracting Officer, U.S. Department of the Interior, Joint Administrative Operations, at Tanner_Frank@ios.doi.gov. If no timely response demonstrates that another responsible source can meet the requirement, the Government anticipates award to Sea Reach Ltd.

Notice of Intent to Sole Source
The U.S. Department of the Interior, Joint Administrative Operations, on behalf of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, intends to award a sole-source purchase order to Sea Reach Ltd., Sheridan, Oregon, for fabrication and installation of Phase 1 interpretive exhibits at the Tule Lake National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center in Tulelake, California.
The requirement includes final production preparation, fabrication, delivery, and installation of the Exterior Welcome and Orientation Exhibits and Interior Refuge History Exhibits, including English- and Spanish-language audio description, an interactive touchscreen, system testing, staff training, and project closeout materials.
Sea Reach, under a competitively awarded contract, worked directly with refuge staff through multiple design revisions while the visitor center was under construction. Award to another vendor for only fabrication, final preparation, delivery, and installation would require substantial duplication of efforts and costs. The Government does not reasonably expect competition to produce meaningful savings sufficient to offset this duplicated effort.
This acquisition is being conducted using simplified procedures under RFO Part 12. In accordance with RFO 12.102(a), the Contracting Officer has documented the determination that only one source is reasonably available.
The Government intends to make award to Sea Reach Ltd. using simplified acquisition procedures. If no timely response demonstrates that another responsible source can meet the requirement, the Government anticipates award on or about September 19, 2026.
Responsible sources may submit pricing and supporting capability information by 10:00 p.m. Central Time on September 19, 2026, to be considered by the Government.
