F--NV DESERT NWR SEED CLEAN, TEST STORAGE

The Department of the Interior, specifically the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, is pursuing a single source contract under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold for the Seeds of Success Program. This agreement designates the University of Nevada, Reno as the provider for native plant seed processing, testing, packaging, and storage to support the Desert National Wildlife Refuge Complex. The selection is justified by market research indicating a lack of other capable sources available to perform these specialized services. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price agreement with a rate of 773 dollars per accession and a total value not to exceed 25,500 dollars. Managed by the Sat Team 1 Fws office in Falls Church, Virginia, the procurement falls under NAICS code 115114. Primary coordination for this effort is handled by Oscar Orozco.
