NOAA/OMAO, UxSOC UMS Support Services

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is seeking feedback from the industry on standard pricing for the procurement of Uncrewed Maritime Systems (UMS) vehicles and related services. The goal is to gather information on pricing, vehicle capabilities, and sensor integration to support missions such as living marine sources surveys, oceanographic parameter measurement, mapping, monitoring, management, and research. Key points to consider: • The ultimate goal is to issue a Request for Proposal aligned with industry standards for UMS support services. • Responses should include information on pricing, transit time, demobilization, and mobilization costs. • Vendors should provide details on their current UMS vehicles, sensors, and integration capabilities. • The Government encourages responses from small businesses and will use this information for set-aside determinations.
