About this opportunity
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has awarded contract 1305M326C0007 to Ocean Gold Seafoods, Inc. for yearly post-survey maintenance and shipping of the Multifunction Trawl (MFT) net system on a sole-source basis, with a total estimated value of $578,075.92 for the base period and four 12-month option periods.
The justification rests on Ocean Gold Seafoods' status as the only responsible source capable of providing required services. The MFT system was designed and built by Ocean Gold in 2023 to support the Integrated West Coast Pelagics Survey, which combines Pacific hake and Coastal Pelagic Species surveys onto a single NOAA vessel. The proprietary design, custom net geometry, material specifications, and fabrication techniques are unique to Ocean Gold; any alternative provider would require system redesign, reconfiguration, and validation, introducing operational disruption and risking the data integrity of critical West Coast fisheries time series. Market research confirmed no other sources could perform the required services without significant technical and scientific risk. Optional services include major repairs, modifications, and testing and training for officers and crew aboard NOAA vessels, chartered vessels, and partner vessels. The period of performance extends from contract award through September 30, 2026, with four 12-month option periods. The contract is firm-fixed-price. NOAA Fisheries' Southwest Fisheries Science Center coordinated the requirement with NOAA's Western Acquisition Division.
