About this opportunity
The Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation issued a Limited Sources Justification Notice for a sole-source contract award to conduct specialized endangered species studies in Lake Mead and Lake Powell, focusing on razorback suckers, humpback chub, and potentially Colorado pikeminnow in the Colorado River ecosystem. The contract, numbered 47QRAA25D002M, was awarded on June 20, 2025, to an unnamed vendor for an undisclosed amount, with services spanning five performance periods from April 15, 2025, to January 31, 2029. The work encompasses comprehensive research activities including quantitative assessment of annual fish reproduction, spawning and nursery area studies, and population dynamics analysis in the Grand Canyon and Lake Mead regions. The Bureau of Reclamation justified the sole-source award based on the vendor's unique capabilities developed over 15 years of consistent performance in this highly specialized field, including possession of specific endangered species permits, specialized laboratory facilities, and established agreements with universities and museums. The contracting office determined this vendor provides the best value through superior technical capability, project management expertise, and proven past performance, with pricing considered fair and reasonable under GSA Schedule rates.
