Quick Summary

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), specifically the Southwest Fisheries Science Center (SWFSC), intends to procure sole-source services for the Rees Monitoring Centron System. This requirement covers cloud migration, routine maintenance, upgrades, and support for their Automated Temperature Monitoring and Notification System (ATMS) at the La Jolla, CA laboratory.

Opportunity Details

  • Agency: Department of Commerce, NOAA, NMFS, SWFSC
  • Notice Type: Award Notice (Justification for Sole Source)
  • Product Service Code: DF10 (IT Management Tools And Services)
  • Place of Performance: Southwest Fisheries Science Center La Jolla Laboratory, 8901 La Jolla Shores Drive, La Jolla, CA 92037

Scope of Work

The objective is to secure a vendor for routine maintenance, upgrades, and cloud migration for the SWFSC's Rees Scientific Centron ATMS. Key tasks include:

  • Maintaining existing hardware, software, and firmware.
  • Performing necessary upgrades for IT security compliance.
  • Migrating the system to a new cloud-based monitoring system.
  • Providing a one-year onsite service contract for Rees Scientific Centron nodes, panels, and sensors, including 24-hour technical support.
  • Upgrading current firmware (V2-Net/V2-CRD) to Z3 protocol and Centron software.
  • Replacing existing V2 Batteries.
  • Performing Rees software upgrade, including Centron application installation, SQL Server upgrade, and database migration.

Contract & Timeline

  • Duration: Base Year (2026 – 2027) with four (4) option years, extending services through 2031.
  • Set-Aside: None
  • Published Date: June 3, 2026

Justification for Sole Source

A Single Source Determination outlines the rationale for procuring these services from REES Scientific. REES Scientific is identified as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and the sole provider of certified personnel for their proprietary system. Replacing the system would incur undue financial burden, and REES Scientific is the only authorized vendor for service and validation; using non-authorized providers would void warranties. This procurement is considered a logical follow-on to previous contracts.
