Description
This is a source sought synopsis only, not a solicitation announcement. This is NOT a request for proposals or quotes and in no way obligates the Government to award any contract. The United States Coast Guard (USCG) performs Search and Rescue (SAR). A Self Locating Datum Marker Buoy (SLDMB) is an effective method to obtain Total Water Current (TWC) in the vicinity of a Last Known Position (LKP) during Search and Rescue (SAR) cases.
The U.S. Coast Guard utilizes the (SLDMB-3) PN: ISLDMB-FAT-AS-DATA-SP.
Given a LKP or estimated initial position (EIP), an accurate estimate of TWC is helpful in finding distressed persons. A Self Locating Datum Marker Buoy (SLDMB) is an effective method to obtain TWC in the vicinity of an LKP during a SAR case. The USCG is presently using the SLDMB-3 provided by Metocean Data Systems CAGE 0EC85. The SLDMB-3 is an oceanographic Davis drifter that continually transmits position and other environmental data in support of SAR missions. The buoys are carried on board and must be safely deployed from both USCG Shipboard and Aviation assets. The marker buoy must be capable of operating in heavy/inclement weather such as high winds, waves, storms, and icing conditions and in both salt and fresh water. The oceanographic marker buoy, drift with the upper one meter of the ocean, minimizing slippage with the water and rectification of the wave motions. Once deployed the marker buoy sink at the end of their life cycle and are expendable.
The U.S. Coast Guard Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) is seeking interested contractors to provide SLDMBs prospects. This notice of intent is not a solicitation or request for competitive proposals. The government will not pay for either the effort or the associated costs to respond, or for any information provided.
