About this opportunity
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Office of Acquisitions and Grants is seeking 300 Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs) specifically manufactured by Mustang Survival (part no. MD3183 T3) with specialized USGS requirements. The procurement is for inflatable PFDs that must meet ANSI 107 standards, include fluorescent yellow-green coloration, and feature retroreflective materials and USCG approval. Vendors must be registered in SAM.gov and submit written quotes via email to Jean Walsh by March 14, 2025, at 8:00 AM EST, with questions accepted until March 3, 2025. The solicitation (RFQ 140G0125Q0041) will evaluate offers based on technical acceptability and lowest price, with an anticipated contract award date of March 20, 2025. Potential contractors must comply with detailed specifications, including silkscreened "USGS" lettering and a government-furnished patch.
Initially a small business set-aside under NAICS code 339920 with a size standard of 750 employees, the solicitation was amended to remove the small business restrictions, opening competition to all vendors. The PFDs will be delivered to the USGS Hydrologic Instrumentation Facility in Tuscaloosa, AL within 60 days after order receipt. The contract includes two optional quantity lines of 150 units each, providing potential flexibility for future procurement. Market research indicated Mustang Survival is the only manufacturer meeting all USGS Safety Office requirements, though competition is expected among their resellers. The procurement falls under the Sporting and Athletic Goods Manufacturing category and will be funded through the Department of the Interior, with shipping to be conducted at government expense via Transportation Service Order.
