Metocean Telematics LIMITED

Metocean Telematics LIMITED, a Canadian for-profit manufacturer and satellite communications specialist headquartered in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, operates as a prime contractor delivering marine monitoring equipment, Iridium satellite communications services, and GPS telemetry products to federal civilian agencies through open competitive procurement—the vendor holds no SBA set-aside certifications and competes full-and-open across all award types.

The vendor's capability portfolio centers on four concrete product and service lines: Iridium satellite communications subscriptions and Short Burst Data telemetry services for remote field operations; International Submerged Land Data Mooring Buoys and Metocean SVP drifter buoys for oceanographic monitoring; GPS-Iridium radio collars and associated data management services for wildlife tracking programs; and satellite-based communication terminals and data plans. Representative prime work includes a single-award Indefinite Delivery Vehicle with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration valued at $8.2 million through February 2027 for Iridium satellite services supporting NOAA's Global Ocean Monitoring and Observing program, climate research, and weather forecasting; two BPA call orders from the U.S. Coast Guard in 2026 for International Submerged Land Data Mooring Buoys at $940 thousand each to support search and rescue operations; a $37.4 thousand sole-source purchase order from the Bureau of Land Management for GPS-Iridium radio collar data services supporting caribou monitoring through September 2029; and a $556.9 thousand total small business purchase order from the Air Force Air Mobility Command for Missionlink terminals and data plans through August 2027.

Customer concentration is acute at NOAA. The top five customer agencies account for 75% of awards by count and 98% of combined potential value. NOAA dominates with twelve awards valued at $10.7 million combined potential value, followed by the U.S. Coast Guard with four awards at $2.6 million, the General Services Administration with one $700 thousand contract (a Federal Supply Schedule vehicle), the Air Force Air Mobility Command with one $557 thousand award, and the Bureau of International Narcotics Law Enforcement with two awards at $161 thousand. The NOAA concentration is anchored by the $8.2 million IDV; task orders drawn against that IDV and related NOAA purchase orders for drifter buoys and telemetry services account for the bulk of the vendor's prime footprint. The Coast Guard's four awards are primarily two identical $940 thousand BPA calls for mooring buoys plus a delivery order and a foreign military sales transaction. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime—no subcontract work appears in the source.

Two parent vehicles carry transactional volume. The $8.2 million NOAA IDV (contract 1305M322DNRMT0001) generated six task orders valued at $2.3 million combined potential value. The GSA Federal Supply Schedule carries three task orders valued at $798 thousand combined potential value, enabling multiple civilian agencies to order satellite communications and marine monitoring equipment off-contract. Activity has been episodic—five awards in 2022, two in 2023, six in 2024, three in 2025, and three in 2026 (as of mid-July)—with eight awards valued at $4.5 million combined potential value reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure centered on the Coast Guard mooring buoy orders and NOAA Iridium services. The vendor's NAICS footprint reflects its product mix: Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing (nine awards), Satellite Telecommunications (eight awards), and Computing Infrastructure Providers, Data Processing, Web Hosting, and Related Services (five awards). PSC coding mirrors the mix, with satellite communications and telecom access services dominating.
