About this opportunity
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Communications Branch has issued a Special Notice of Intent to award a sole source contract for the purchase of acoustic telemetry transmitters compatible with the agency's existing equipment and the Great Lakes Acoustic Telemetry Observation System (GLATOS). This sole source award will be made under the simplified acquisition procedures of FAR Part 13, as the requirement does not exceed the Simplified Acquisition Threshold.
The purpose of this sole source award is to obtain acoustic telemetry transmitters that are proprietary and specialized in nature, requiring compatibility with the agency's current equipment and participation in the GLATOS program. INNOVASEA Systems, Inc. has been identified as the sole provider capable of meeting this requirement. The agency is providing notice of its intent to award a firm fixed price contract to INNOVASEA Systems, Inc. and is allowing any interested parties to submit a statement of capabilities demonstrating their ability to compete for this requirement. However, the agency has determined that competition would not be advantageous, and any costs associated with responding to this notice will be the sole responsibility of the respondent.
