This contract is a sole-source award to Miami University (Ohio) for the collection, processing, and shipment of precipitation samples at the NADP/NTN monitoring station OH09, operated under the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) through the Department of the Interior. The award is justified under FAR 13.1 due to the unique and exclusive control Miami University holds over the site’s infrastructure, including land, buildings, power systems, access roads, and monitoring equipment, which are not available to or feasible for any other entity to operate. The contractor is required to perform 52 weekly site visits annually to collect precipitation samples, maintain and calibrate instruments, gather meteorological data, and ensure uninterrupted data transmission, all within a secured, remote location with restricted access that only Miami University personnel can provide. No competitive solicitation process was conducted, and no formal evaluation factors, weights, or price details are included in the documentation, as the award is based solely on the absence of other qualified sources. The contract is administered by the Office of Acquisition and Grants-National, located in Reston, Virginia, with Brian Baker serving as the contracting officer; however, no Contracting Officer’s Representative or Technical Representative is identified. Performance occurs entirely at the OH09 site in Ohio, with no formal delivery location or FOB terms specified. The work must adhere to the operational standards and data quality protocols of the National Atmospheric Deposition Program, though no specific standards like ASTM or EPA are cited. Submission of proposals was required by May 1, 2026, via email to the contracting officer, and no formal proposal format, page limits, or file type requirements were provided. The contract does not include detailed pricing, CLINs, or a stated value, and no certifications, socioeconomic status, or unique entity identifiers are documented. Special requirements emphasize the contractor’s exclusive reliance on Miami University’s infrastructure and protocols, with no third-party access or support permitted under any circumstances.
