This synopsis is for information and planning purposes only and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. No contract will be awarded as a result of this Sources Sought announcement. The United States Geological Survey, Office of Acquisition and Grants is soliciting information from qualified sources; the results of this announcement will be evaluated to determine if there are businesses capable of performing the proposed work. The US Geological Survey, Office of Acquisition and Grants seeks responses from vendors that possess highly specialized knowledge, expertise, and experience in all aspects of land-based seismic acquisition, and in the processing and interpretation of active and passive source seismic data at the small basin scale, specific to Lake Iceberg, Alaska and the surrounding southern region of Alaska. Vendors must possess the capability to process, analyze, and interpret active and passive source seismic data to create a comprehensive database that catalogues and characterizes Quaternary-active faults and related ground shaking/failure throughout the entire southern margin of Alaska. The vendor will 1) process and interpret p-wave seismic reflection data from the active source seismic profiles from Iceberg Lake, Alaska 2) provide shear wave velocity profiles derived from surface waves measured along these profiles, and 3) provide frequency analysis of data from three-component seismic nodes installed throughout the region. Data analysis aims to assess soil properties, geologic structure, depth to bedrock; and to produce spectral ratios that highlight ground-shaking frequencies related to underlying soil and rock properties. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, which shall be considered by the Government. The information received in response to this notice will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement. NAICS: 541360 Geophysical Surveying and Mapping Services/Size standard $25.0 Responses must include complete description of capabilities to be provided and contain sufficient technical information to allow agency analysis to establish bona fide capabilities. This is not a request for quotation, and the Government does not intend to pay for information received. A determination by the Government not to compete this requirement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. Respondents will not be notified of the results of any Government evaluation of the information received. All questions and submissions in response to this notice must be submitted electronically via email to Joahnne Ongjoco at jongjoco@usgs.gov by 5:00pm EST on Friday, January 20, 2023. Capability statements shall only be accepted through email addressed to jongjoco@usgs.gov. All statement documents required by this notice must be uploaded and received in their entirety no later than 5:00pm EST on Friday, January 20, 2023.
