About this opportunity
The Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife (ODFW) is conducting a sole-source solicitation for data loggers and specialized oceanographic sensors for their Newport Marine Office, specifically targeting the procurement of two ECO-FLNTU combined fluorometer/turbidity sensors from Sea-Bird Electronics. This procurement is being executed under Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 279B.075 and Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 125-247-0275, which allows for sole-source acquisitions under specific circumstances. The sensors are critical for maintaining data collection compatibility with existing SBE19plusV2 (CTD) equipment used across West Coast oceanographic research platforms. The solicitation was posted on August 30, 2022, with a response deadline of September 6, 2022, and will result in a purchase order. The specific deliverables include two ECO2.21111000CS sensors, which measure optical backscattering and chlorophyll fluorescence in natural waters, featuring integrated self-logging, configurable output, and high precision measurement capabilities.
The procurement appears to be unrestricted in terms of vendor qualifications, with the opportunity specifically limited to a sole-source vendor (Sea-Bird Electronics). The total estimated cost for the two sensors is $16,029.24, and the procurement jurisdictionally involves Lincoln County and the City of Newberg. WET Labs has provided a supporting sole-source letter confirming they are the exclusive authorized service center for these specialized oceanographic measurement instruments in North America. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises were identified in the documentation. The sensors will integrate with existing ODFW marine research infrastructure, specifically complementing their current SBE19plusV2 CTD equipment to ensure consistent and compatible data streams for oceanographic research. The procurement method suggests a direct purchase approach rather than a competitive bidding process, reflecting the specialized nature of the required scientific instrumentation.
