AI Contract Overview

The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation's Pacific Northwest Region in Boise, Idaho, plans to award a non-competitive contract to Biomark, Inc., based in Boise, for the supply of Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) tags and related monitoring systems. Biomark, Inc. is the exclusive distributor of Destron Technologies' patented PIT tag products, which are currently utilized under contracts held by entities such as Bonneville Power Administration and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The technology is essential because it is the only system maintained by the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission, ensuring compatibility across the Columbia Basin's fish monitoring infrastructure. Due to the sole source status of Destron Technologies and Biomark's exclusivity, the government intends to negotiate directly with Biomark, following procedures outlined in the Federal Acquisition Regulation. Although the process is non-competitive, the government is inviting other interested parties to demonstrate their capability or submit proposals by the specified deadline, August 31, 2006, at 4:00 PM MDT. However, the decision to proceed without competitive bidding rests solely with the government. The procurement falls under the NAICS code 541710 and concerns the provision of PIT tags specifically for the Cle Elum Dam interim fish passage facility in Washington. Inquiries and proposals must be submitted by fax or email to the designated contact, with no telephone inquiries accepted. This approach ensures continuity and integration with pre-existing systems within the region’s fish monitoring programs.
