About this opportunity

The Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife (ODFW) is seeking to procure vessel chartering services for conducting Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) video surveys of seafloor habitats near Heceta and Nehalem Banks. The procurement is a Request for Proposal (RFP) targeting a contractor to provide a vessel, crew, and technical support for up to 10 days of at-sea surveys between August 30, 2021, and November 15, 2021. Four survey days will focus on fish, invertebrates, and seafloor features at 80 fathoms near Nehalem Bank, while six additional days will target habitats at 100-160 fathoms in the Rockfish Conservation Area near Heceta Bank. Key contractor qualifications include a vessel master with a minimum of three years of comparable experience and three professional references. The proposal submission deadline is July 29, 2021, at 2:00 PM PST, with ODFW evaluating proposals based on qualifications, vessel suitability, and pricing. The Price Proposal must include a detailed cost breakdown for daily survey days, transit days, mobilization, demobilization, and any additional discretionary costs.

The RFP does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The contract appears open to qualified marine vessel operators capable of meeting the technical and operational requirements. While no incumbent vendors are mentioned, the contractor must provide a vessel capable of supporting ROV surveys in specified marine research areas. The draft contract indicates payment will be based on completed and accepted deliverables and services, with no reimbursement for travel or additional expenses. The contract may be amended to add or delete work within the scope of the Statement of Work, and the total contract will be terminated when scientific objectives are met, funds are exhausted, or the 10-day survey limit is reached. Though a specific budget range is not detailed, the contractor will be compensated for survey days, with costs determined by the proposed daily rates and associated expenses. The contractor must also provide various certifications and comply with federal, state, and local laws and regulations.
