About this opportunity
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is seeking to procure two Mobile Marine Monitoring (M3) Systems for the Office of Law Enforcement (OLE) to enforce regulations on vessel speed limits in Seasonal Management Areas (SMAs) to protect endangered North Atlantic right whales. The M3 systems must be portable, self-contained, and include radar, camera, and software capabilities to remotely monitor and record vessel activity in the SMAs with a minimum 7-nautical mile range. The systems must also integrate with UAV platforms and provide remote access and data storage. NOAA is seeking information from potential vendors on their capabilities, transition/rollout plans, technical specifications, and maintenance plans, with responses due by April 15, 2024. This is a sources sought notice and not a request for proposals.
The procurement is set aside for small businesses. The relevant NAICS code is likely 334511 (Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing), and the PSC code is likely 5895 (Miscellaneous Communication Equipment). There are no identified incumbent contractors. The contract value is unknown, but NOAA requires two additional M3 systems to expand its existing capabilities, with a delivery timeline of 12 weeks after contract award and an initial 12 months of software support with options to renew annually for up to 4 additional years.
Notice text
Two Mobile Marine Monitoring Systems are being requested by OLE to effectively carry out its mission to recover all protected species of whales, most notably the North Atlantic Right Whale by enforcing existing laws that prevent vessel strikes. OLE will use the Mobile Marine Monitoring Systems to remotely observe vessel speed inside eight (8) out of ten (10) SMAs. SMA boundaries of these eight (8) begin seaward of U.S. collision regulation boundaries, while the remaining two (2) are entirely surrounded by open ocean and unlikely to be within the range of the procured unit.
