ParoScientific Branded Digiquartz Transmitters

The Department of Commerce's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is seeking to procure Paroscientific, Inc. Branded Digiquartz Intelligent Gauge Transmitters for environmental monitoring stations within the National Water Level Observation Network (NWLON). These specialized transmitters will support critical water level monitoring infrastructure, falling under the NAICS category of Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing (334519) and Product Service Code 6640 for Laboratory Equipment and Supplies. The solicitation was posted on May 19, 2025, with proposals due by June 12, 2025, providing potential bidders approximately 24 days to prepare and submit their responses. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the notice, the procurement appears focused on acquiring high-precision monitoring equipment for scientific environmental data collection. The contract opportunity seems to prioritize technical capabilities and compliance with NOAA's specialized monitoring requirements.

The solicitation is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, meaning only small businesses are eligible to compete for this contract. Although the exact award value is not specified, the procurement involves scientific measurement equipment for a federal water monitoring network, suggesting a potentially significant contract value. The place of performance will likely be determined by NOAA's specific environmental monitoring station locations, which are part of the National Water Level Observation Network. The procurement targets Paroscientific's specific Digiquartz Intelligent Gauge Transmitters, indicating a potentially sole-source or narrowly defined technical requirement. The contract appears designed to support ongoing environmental monitoring efforts, with the equipment presumably being deployed across multiple monitoring stations to collect consistent and precise water level data.
