Notice of Intent to Sole Source Award
THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE SOURCE CONTRACT AND IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Communications Branch intends to award a firm fixed price sole source under the authority of FAR subpart 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) and (ii), for purchases not exceeding the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT), Contracting Officers may solicit from only one source if the circumstances deem only one source is reasonably available (e.g., urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, brand name, or industrial mobilization).: Lotek Wireless Inc.
115 Pony Drive
Newmarket, ON, L3Y 7B5
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 334290, Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing, and the Product Service Code (PSC) for this requirement is 7G22, IT and Telecom¿Network: Satellite and Rf Communications Products. The object of this sole source award is to require the purchase of wolf collars for the Selawik National Refuge as they have an urgent need to gather information on wolves on refuge lands in response to new proposal to manage wolves using aerial gunning. In partnership with other management agencies, we determined that the most feasible way to acquire information on wolves is through deployment of GPS collars equipped with cameras on wolves in the refuge. Deployment must occur prior to summer 2026 to ensure data is available to support decision making in 2027, and deployment is only possible during periods of snow cover and adequate daylight (February-April). Only Lotek responded with affirmation that suitable collars can be manufactured and delivered in that time frame.
This synopsis does not constitute a solicitation; however, if any interested party believes they can meet the above requirement, it may submit a statement of capabilities. The statement of capabilities must be submitted in writing and must contain clear and convincing evidence that competition of this requirement would be advantageous to the Government. If parties choose to respond, any cost associated with preparation and submission of data or any other cost incurred in response to this announcement are the sole responsibility of the respondent and will not be reimbursed by the Government.
Capability statements shall be submitted by e-mail ONLY as a Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF attachment to the following address: carter_duke@fws.gov.
