The procurement involves the acquisition of specific proprietary components—including a Loopstick Antenna Board, Dome Antenna Top Cover, Delrin Outer Flange set, Antenna Holder Backing Ring, and two 25 MHz T/R Dome Antenna Whips—each of which must be sourced directly from CODAR Ocean Sensors, Ltd., to ensure compatibility, system integrity, and accurate ocean current data collection. No alternative vendors or aftermarket parts are acceptable due to the unique technical design of the SeaSonde system, and the use of non-CODAR components would render measurements unreliable and risk equipment failure. The solicitation, issued under RFx number 3150006944 and solicitation number 9280-27-R-RFIN-00002, was posted on July 27, 2026, with objections due by August 13, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. CST, following the requirements of Section 31-7-13(C) of the Mississippi Code. Objections must be submitted electronically to bids@usm.edu with the exact subject line “Sole Source Objection USM SSP 27_002” or mailed to the designated address in Jackson or Hattiesburg, MS, and must include detailed documentation supporting the availability of alternative sources. The procurement is not subject to competitive bidding, and no evaluation factors, weighting criteria, or formal quality inspection standards beyond CODAR’s proprietary requirements are outlined. Acceptance of the parts will be conducted at the field installation sites along the Mississippi Gulf Coast, where the systems are operational. Packaging and marking requirements are minimal, with traceability relying solely on CODAR’s internal identifiers such as Product No. and Quote ID RMA2645-Q1, and no MIL-STDs or standardized labeling systems are referenced. The total cost is justified by precedent from eight prior sole-source purchases with CODAR, and pricing is considered reasonable based on historical consistency. The procuring contracting officer is Jacob Cochran, Director of Procurement & Contracts at USM, with no designated COR or COTR identified. No formal contract type, payment instructions, accounting codes, or invoicing procedures are specified, and while a firm
