Miami USERT Boat Slip Rental

The Federal Bureau of Investigation issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source a Firm-Fixed-Price contract to Harbour Towne Marina LLC for Miami USERT Boat Slip Rental, with responses due by August 2, 2026. This is a sole-source procurement; however, the FBI will consider capability statements and quotations from all responsible sources to determine whether competitive procurement is warranted.

The requirement supports operational readiness of the FBI Miami Division Underwater Search and Evidence Response Team (USERT), which operates a 34-foot rigid hull inflatable boat for time-sensitive evidence recovery and law enforcement response missions. The marina must accommodate the RHIB within 20 miles of the Miami Field Office and provide minimum water depth of four feet at low tide, continuous electrical shore power, potable water service, controlled facility access, 24-hour video surveillance, on-site fuel station, boat launch and recovery ramp capability, and unrestricted access to the Atlantic Ocean without bridge restrictions.

Market research determined that Harbour Towne Marina, located at 801 NE 3rd Street, Dania Beach, Florida, is the only known responsible source capable of meeting all minimum operational and technical requirements within the geographic proximity constraint; other candidate marinas lacked available slips during the required performance period or could not satisfy all operational requirements. The estimated contract value is $38,136.00 for a one-year period from September 29, 2026, through September 28, 2027.

Interested parties shall submit capability statements and quotations electronically to Contracting Officer David P. Yates at DPYates@fbi.gov by the August 2 deadline. The Government will determine price reasonableness through price analysis comparing historical rates, current commercial marina rental rates for similarly sized slips, and contractor published pricing.
