The U.S. Geological Survey intends to award a non-competitive purchase order to Geometrics of San Jose, CA for a Streamer Power Supply Unit (SPSU) that must be integrated with the existing USGS owned Geometrics Multi-Channel Seismic hydrophone system (MCS) to support the Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center. The SPSU will be delivered within 60 days of the date the contractor receives the purchase order. Geometrics is an authorized source capable of providing a SPSU that is compatible with the existing USGS owned Geometrics MCS. An additional SPSU to the existing MCS system is necessary for the center to run multiple concurrent MCS operations. Geometrics must be used in order for components to integrate with existing MCS. An unsuccessful integration will jeopardize field work and compromise data. The component must be compatible, or data will be lost. Additionally, the data gathered by our Geometrics MCS must be comparable to data gathered from prior field work, or observed changes in the area of study will not be recorded to Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center.
