About this opportunity
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) to solicit competitive proposals from experienced and qualified contractors to develop a remotely sensed data constrained biogeochemical model for landscape scale (statewide) annual carbon and greenhouse gas (GHG) analysis, and future projection modeling. The monitoring and modeling framework will estimate carbon stocks and GHG fluxes on every acre of annual and perennial croplands in California, whether or not they are enrolled in any healthy soils or climate smart agricultural practices. This approach will allow California to monitor and project the benefits of climate action and the consequences of inaction. The RFP includes a 28-month project timeline and a total budget of $1,500,000. Proposals are due by March 12, 2024, and the contract is expected to begin on May 20, 2024. Proposals will be evaluated on factors such as management plan, methodology, work plan, personnel experience, and cost, with a minimum score of 80 points required for award consideration.
The RFP does not include any set-asides or incumbent information. It requires the model and data to be open sourced to maximize transparency and improve future contracting options for the state. The monitoring and modeling framework must be spatially and temporally consistent, with data that is free, sustainable, and easily replicated by state staff. The RFP covers the Sacramento County and Sacramento City jurisdictions, and the Notice of Intent to Award indicates that the contract will be awarded to Pools and Fluxes LLC.
Opportunity text
This Request for Proposal (RFP) is to solicit competitive proposals from experienced and qualified contractors to develop a remotely sensed data constrained biogeochemical model for landscape scale (statewide) annual carbon and greenhouse gas (GHG) analysis, and future projection modeling. Further, the model and data associated with this project must be open sourced to maximize transparency, innovation, and improve governance and future contracting options for the State. This monitoring and modeling framework will estimate carbon stocks and GHG fluxes on every acre of annual and perennial croplands in California, whether or not they are enrolled in any healthy soils or otherwise climate smart agricultural practices. This approach allows California to monitor and project into the future the benefits of climate action, and the consequences of inaction.
