Notice of Intent to Sole Source - Stretch Mooring
This opportunity involves replacing two stretch hoses with flange adapters to maintain moored data buoy capabilities, integrating directly with an existing system. The reinforced rubber stretch hose serves as a mechanical isolator, stretching to 1.5 times its length while transmitting power and signals via built-in conductors. All mooring connections use bolted flanges to minimize mechanical noise and support modular design. No specific timelines, budget amounts, or performance location are mentioned in the description. The work focuses on technical replacement and integration of specialized mooring components.
