About this opportunity
The U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to award a sole source contract to the American University of Beirut (AUB) for the continued advancement of their Electrical Capacitance Tomography (ECT) sensor technology. The ECT sensor was previously developed by AUB under a prior contract to detect and estimate the thickness and depth of oil under ice.
The purpose of this Special Notice is for BSEE to further optimize the ECT sensor to better detect oil and measure its thickness under varying ice conditions, advancing the technology from TRL 3 to TRL 5 or 6. Due to AUB's unique qualifications as the initial developer of the ECT sensor, BSEE intends to award a sole source contract for a 24-month period of performance, with testing anticipated at the Ohmsett facility in New Jersey. While other firms believing they can enhance the ECT sensor may submit technical documentation to the Contracting Officer by May 21, 2024 for consideration, the decision to compete the requirement lies solely with the government.
