AI Contract Overview

The Department of the Interior's United States Geological Survey (USGS) plans to modify an existing contract with GrayDS, Inc., a small business based in Scottsdale, AZ, to add additional work for the migration of USGS microwave radio sites in California as part of the Advanced Wireless Services 3 (AWS3) spectrum reallocation program. Originally competitively awarded in FY2017 as a total small business set-aside, the contract covers site acquisition, professional design, and construction administration services for seventeen sites across the Northern California Seismic Network (NCSN) and Southern California Seismic Network (SCSN), facilitating their transition from the 2 GHz band to the 8 MHz band. The modification will add approximately two to three new sites to connect these separate networks into a continuous statewide system while maintaining the same scope of services. The value of this added work is estimated at $250,000 and will be awarded on a noncompetitive basis, justified under federal acquisition regulations that allow sole-source contracting when only one source is reasonably available. Interested parties may submit their capabilities for consideration, but this action is exempt from the Competition in Contracting Act. The contract falls under NAICS code 237130, relating to power and communication line construction. The Contracting Officer for this action is Jeff Caravelli, who can be reached for further information.
