About this opportunity
The National Wildlife Research Center, a component of the Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), has issued a Special Notice for the procurement of GPS video collars for a Chronic Wasting Disease research project in Wyoming. This is a notice of intent to solicit from a single source in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b), and no quotes are being requested at this time.
The purpose of this Special Notice is to justify the sole-source acquisition of GPS video collars from Vectronic Aerospace Inc. The National Wildlife Research Center requires specific technical capabilities, including the ability to store over 35 hours of video footage, Iridium satellite connectivity, and a demonstrated reliability of over 97%. Market research has determined that Vectronic Aerospace is the only vendor that can meet all of the salient requirements. The total estimated cost for the GPS video collars is $43,616.98, and they will be used in collaboration with several government agencies and Tribal Nations for the Chronic Wasting Disease research project. Due to the proprietary nature of the technology and the need for compatibility with existing equipment, competition is limited to Vectronic Aerospace as the sole source.
