tTEM V2 SYSTEM UPGRADE

The Bureau of Reclamation is conducting a sources-sought market research effort for a tTEM V2 imaging system upgrade, with responses due by 4:00 PM MDT on November 5, 2026. The procurement is unset, though the Government is assessing whether the requirement can be made competitive or reserved for small business. NAICS 334519 (Other Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing) applies with a 100-employee size standard. The Government actively seeks responses from small businesses, including 8(a) concerns, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned businesses, HUBzone businesses, and Women-Owned small business concerns.

The requirement involves procuring a Mobile tTEM V2 system upgrade package manufactured by TEMcompany ApS to upgrade Reclamation's existing tTEM V1 system. The system maps subsurface electrical conductivity distributions to approximately 590 feet below ground surface to assess hydrogeologic conditions affecting facility structural integrity. The upgrade kit includes a combined transmitter and receiver electronics unit with integrated GPS and wireless WiFi connectivity, liquid-cooled transmitter electronics, dual transmitter moments for shallow and deep imaging, multiple transmitter coils, receiver coil, swappable batteries, cables, premium subscription software for 12 months, and system calibration factors. The system delivers shallow vertical resolution of 2–3 meters and horizontal resolution of 10 meters, achieving production rates of approximately 1 square kilometer per day, with GIS-based navigation and real-time data processing and inversion capabilities.

Respondents must provide prior experience, teaming agreements, manufacturing capability details, anticipated challenges, and relevant technical or business information to Aubrie Watson, Contract Specialist, at aubrielle_watson@ios.doi.gov. This sources-sought submission is voluntary and does not guarantee awards or constitute a commitment by the Bureau of Reclamation.
