Description
The US Geological Survey (USGS) is seeking to purchase 19 Mark-Report PAT-376D satellite tags from Wildlife Computers. The tags will be used to track sturgeon fish in the Gulf of Maine as part of an existing satellite network. The equipment must meet minimum requirements, including a long battery life without relying on solar charging and a small size of 120g or less. The USGS has determined that Wildlife Computers is the only source that can provide the required equipment.
Key points to consider:
• The USGS is seeking a non-competitive procurement for the satellite tags.
• The tags will be used to assess movements of sturgeon in the Gulf of Maine during winter months.
• The equipment must meet specific requirements, including a long battery life and a small size.
• The USGS has conducted market research and determined that Wildlife Computers is the only source that can provide the required equipment.
