AI Contract Overview
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service intends to award a sole source firm fixed price contract to Surefoot Database Consulting, Inc. for continued Filemaker/Claris programming services to upgrade and modify the Service-wide Pre-Acquisition Tracking System (PATS) database. This contract includes a base year and four option years, is authorized under FAR Part 12.102(a) for acquisitions at or below the simplified acquisition threshold of $350,000, and falls under NAICS code 541511 for custom computer programming services. Surefoot is designated as the sole provider due to its proprietary knowledge of the PATS system, extensive historical involvement as its exclusive developer, and deep familiarity with the agency’s land acquisition workflows—factors that render any other vendor incapable of meeting the technical and operational demands. The system is uniquely tailored to the USFWS Realty Program, and no viable alternatives exist. Interested parties may submit a written statement of capabilities demonstrating why competition would benefit the government, but only via email as a Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF attachment to [email hidden] before the deadline of July 31, 2026. No telephone inquiries or offers will be accepted, and all costs associated with preparing and submitting a response are the sole responsibility of the respondent. This notice is not a solicitation, and the award remains contingent upon the absence of a credible competitive offer. The contract will be administered by the Department of the Interior’s It Services FWS office based in Falls Church, Virginia, with Lawrence Aragon as the primary point of contact.
