Supply of Ruggedized GPS Wildlife Tracking Collars

The contract seeks the delivery of heavy-duty GPS collars specifically engineered for wildlife tracking in demanding outdoor conditions and suited for large animals. These collars must satisfy strict durability and performance standards to ensure reliable operation in harsh environments, including extreme weather, rough terrain, and prolonged exposure to the elements. The equipment is intended for use in ecological monitoring and wildlife management initiatives, requiring robust construction, long battery life, accurate geolocation data, and resistance to physical damage or environmental degradation. The solicitation is issued as a subcontract by the state of New Mexico under NAICS code 334510, which pertains to navigational, measuring, electromedical, and control instruments manufacturing. The proposal deadline is set for July 17, 2026, with the opportunity posted on June 25, 2026. All responses must be submitted through the designated online portal, and while the specific place of performance and point of contact are not detailed, the project is aligned with state-level conservation efforts requiring consistent and accurate tracking data across varied and often remote landscapes.
