About this opportunity
The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management has issued a Special Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Purchase Order for commercial data services related to GPS-Iridium radio collars used to monitor caribou distribution and range. The statutory authority for this sole-source procurement is FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), and Subpart 13.5 is not applicable.
The purpose of this Special Notice is to inform the public of the Bureau of Land Management's intent to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price purchase order to MetOcean Telematics, the only vendor partnered with the collar manufacturer Telonics, Inc. that can provide the required data management services. The estimated 5-year cost is $38,670 for 52 GPS-Iridium collars. MetOcean's unique qualifications and the need for data continuity justify the sole-source award under 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1(b)(1)(i). The Special Notice is not a request for competitive quotes, and no other sources were identified that could provide the services required to effectively manage the GPS-Iridium data from the BLM's existing Telonics collars.
