15--Sole SourceJustification Posting (Freefly UAS BPA)

The United States Department of the Interior is seeking to establish a sole source Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) with Freefly Systems Inc. for the Freefly Alta X UAS, Astro Max UAS, and other related accessories. The BPA will have a five-year ordering period, and the Government reserves the right to bilaterally modify the agreement to include other items. The UAS will be used for various operations, including wildland fire surveillance, wildland fire aerial ignition, search and rescue, and disaster response. The Freefly UAS software provides capabilities that enable more efficient and extended Unmanned Aerial Vehicle operations for public safety. Some key points to consider are: • The BPA has a five-year ordering period with annual review of the pricing schedule. • The Government reserves the right to modify the agreement to include other items. • The UAS will be used for various operations, including wildland fire surveillance and disaster response. • The Freefly UAS software provides capabilities for more efficient and extended Unmanned Aerial Vehicle operations. • The Contracting Officer determines that the anticipated price will be fair and reasonable based on comparison with published catalog prices.
