20--Cables with Power Supply

This is a notice of intent to award a sole source purchase order to Geometrics, Inc., San Jose, CA for a tow cable, deck cable, and a streamer power supply. These components are compatible only with the USGS owned Geometrics GeoEel systems. No other manufacturer parts are compatible with this system. The Government¿s existing GeoEel system was procured for $146,130.00 in 2014. Replacement of the entire system is not in the Government¿s best interest. All streamer products are proprietary and other manufactured units are not interchangeable with the Geometrics system in use by the USGS. There are no authorized resellers in the US. Customers can only buy directly from the manufacturer. Other interested concerns having the ability to meet the USGS requirement may submit a proposal to the Contracting Officer no later than 03/04/2016 at 1400 EST. As required by FAR 5.102(c) (1) the RFQ G16PS00258 will be made available upon request. Contact the Contracting Officer at [email protected] for a copy of the RFQ. All submissions will be considered by the agency and evaluated to determine if competitive opportunities exist. Estimated delivery is April 2016.
