About this opportunity

The Department of Agriculture Under Secretary for Farm Production and Conservation has issued a Special Notice for a Notice of Intent to Sole Source the procurement of satellite data retrieval services from Micro-Specialties, Inc. (MSI) to support the NRCS Snow Survey Program. The NRCS requires ongoing satellite data retrieval services for 128 Global Modems linked to Iridium communications to retrieve data from automated hydroclimatic stations.

The purpose of this Special Notice is to inform interested parties of the NRCS's intent to contract with MSI on a sole source basis, as MSI developed the data retrieval concept with the NRCS and is the sole provider of these specialized services. Interested parties must submit technical capabilities, pricing, and evidence of ability to meet the government's needs by August 20, 2024. However, the NRCS will not consider other offers unless there is clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the government. This is not a request for quote, and no contract will be awarded based on responses to this notice.
