About this opportunity
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service National Aviation Office has issued a Special Notice regarding a sole-source procurement for Garmin Navigation Data. The notice indicates the agency's intent to solicit a single-source contract in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1(b). Specifically, the Forest Service plans to establish a five-year Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) with Garmin International, Inc. for navigation data subscriptions. The procurement will cover 20 government aircraft, with potential expansion capabilities. The total potential contract value is estimated at $200,000 over the five-year contract period.
The primary objective of this Special Notice is to secure proprietary navigation databases specifically designed for Garmin avionics systems already installed in the Forest Service aircraft fleet. Contractors should note that quotes are not being requested at this time, as this is a sole-source justification document. Eligibility is effectively limited to Garmin International, Inc., as market research confirmed they are the only viable source meeting the agency's specific navigation system requirements. The justification for the sole-source determination includes critical factors such as safety requirements, FAA compliance, system compatibility, and potential cost savings through bundled subscriptions. The opportunity was posted on December 11, 2024, with a due date of December 20, 2024, and falls under the NAICS category 334511 for Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing.
