Summary (Newest Update)

Background The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Caribbean-Florida Water Science Center (WSC) has a requirement for the delivery of an Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) for flow measurements and bathymetry surveys. This acquisition aims to enhance the agency's capabilities in conducting hydrological studies and assessments in the Caribbean-Florida region. The contract is a total small business set-aside, indicating that only small businesses are eligible to bid. Work Details The contract requires the delivery of one Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) that includes the following components: - 1 unit of YSI, 911978, Surfbee Flow Seeker for Sontek M9, PCM and RS5 - 1 unit of YSI, 911949, Surfbee FlowSeeker RDI RiverPro Mount - 1 unit of YSI, 911953, Surfbee Multiport Cable - 1 unit of YSI, 370440, On-Site Field Engineering/Project Manager Services. The product/service code is 6680, which pertains to liquid and gas flow measuring instruments.

Period of Performance Delivery is required within 30 days after receipt of order. Place of Performance Caribbean-Florida WSC, 3321 College Ave., Davie, FL 33314, USA. Bidder Requirements Bidders must be registered to be eligible for award. This solicitation is a total small business set-aside. Incumbent Analysis (see Incumbents section for more detail) This opportunity appears to have a confirmed incumbent and/or closely related prior contract based on FY26 awards for the same requirement title, “USV FOR FLOW MEASUREMENTS AND BATHYMETRY SURVEYS IAW SALIENTS,” under USGS Caribbean-Florida WSC. Fondriest Environmental received contract 140G0126P0151 for $81,240 (05/12/26–07/10/26), and Stateline Solution received contract 140G0126P0052 for $28,056 (02/13/26–03/12/26), both described as the same USV flow measurement and bathymetry survey effort. The repeated use of the same requirement language and agency/location suggests the current RFQ may be a continuation or follow-on procurement for similar equipment and services.
