- Description
- This is a notice of intent to solicit from a single source. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), intends to award a purchase order with Fish Story LLC for continued seabird population and productivity data to continue long-term monitoring data in Lower Cook Inlet, Alaska as described in the attached Statement of Work. Award will be made in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1(b) and the procedures at FAR Part 12 entitled, Acquisition of Commercial Items and FAR Part 13 entitled, Simplified Acquisition Procedures. Fish Story LLC is, to the USGS knowledge, the only source who can provide this service as this vendor is in the unique situation of residing at a remote cabin adjacent to Chisik Island (more than 60 miles from the nearest population center) during the summer, enabling local, frequent visits to the study site for routine data collection. As in previous years, it would simply not be feasible logistically or financially for USGS to collect these data without hiring multiple people with specialty skill sets and building and maintaining a field base camp of our own near Chisik Island. Furthermore, this contractor has extensive experience in collecting all the types of data we require at Chisik and Duck islands, having conducted similar research on seabirds in Alaska, Greenland, and Svalbard. . The purpose of this notice is to satisfy the requirements of FAR Subpart 5.2. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all responsible parties may submit a capability statement or proposal by the closing date of this announcement which shall be considered by the agency. No solicitation will be issued. A determination not to compete this action based upon responses received is in the sole discretion of the Government. The NAICS code for this action is 541990 All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services with the associated standard size of $19.5 million Please no phone calls. Responses or inquiries shall only be accepted through electronic mail addressed to thuot@usgs.gov and must be uploaded and received in their entirety no later than 04/25/2025 1700 PD. Responses submitted by hardcopy or the SAM.gov portal shall not be accepted or considered.
