About this opportunity
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Alaska Fisheries Science Center has issued a sole source justification for upgrading Marport net mensuration systems, with contract 1305M325C0039 awarded to Marport Americas, Inc. on August 26, 2025. The procurement involves updating the operating systems of 38 existing portable catch control and net monitoring sensors and purchasing 30 new sensors, including 20 door spread sensors and 10 net height sensors, to be completed by December 1, 2025. The sole source justification is based on Marport being the only manufacturer capable of updating their proprietary net mensuration systems, which are critical for NOAA's congressionally-mandated fishery-independent groundfish trawl surveys that track fishing gear performance, estimate seafloor sampling areas, and calculate catch per unit effort. The urgency stems from Marport's plan to discontinue support for the current sensor generation in 2026, which would compromise NOAA's bottom trawl surveys if upgrades are not completed. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed price supply contract under Simplified Acquisition Procedures with a potential value up to $7.5 million, though the actual award amount was not disclosed in the notice.
