About this opportunity
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission is announcing an intended single-source award to the National Opinion Research Center (NORC) at the University of Chicago for the 2027 National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation, with a protest deadline of June 25, 2026 (72 hours from posting). This is not a competitive solicitation — it is a public notice of agency decision under Florida Statutes 287.057.
The sole-source justification rests on NORC's exclusive role as conductor of the 2027 National Survey for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and its exclusive access to the national survey questionnaire and AmeriSpeak survey panel. Direct comparison between Florida's data and nationwide trends requires NORC's involvement.
The scope encompasses survey design and implementation to measure participation rates and expenditures associated with hunting, fishing, and wildlife-watching activities in Florida. Data collection runs from January 2027 through March 2028 and employs both probability and non-probability sampling methods. Deliverables include a weighted dataset, a comprehensive report on results, a presentation slide deck, and additional analytic support.
The contract award price is $174,500. The contact is Adrian Wiggins, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, 1875 Orange Avenue East, Tallahassee, Florida 32311-6160, telephone (850) 410-0471, email Adrian.Wiggins@myfwc.com. The internal tracking number is FWC SS 25/26-16. Protests must be filed within 72 hours by mail to the agency address or by email to the contact listed.
