Refurbish Wildlife Radio Collars

The Alaska Region of the National Park Service intends to award a contract to Telonics, Inc. on a non-competetive basis. The requirement is to refurbish two (2) each TGW-4580H Wolf GPS/ARGOS radio collars and one (1) Gen 3 TGW-4580H-3 Wolf radio collar. The National Park Service has purchased radio transmitter collars from Telonics, Inc under a previous contract (wolf research). The collars will be returned to Telonics, Inc at the end of the study period for refurbishment and subsequent reuse. Telonics, Inc is the only company that will refurbish its manufactured collars. Also, for data to be meaningful and comparative between wolf projects, resolution of data from collars (accuracy, fix rate, etc.) must be similar, therefore, it is imperative that any additional collars be configured in exactly the same manner as all other GPS collars that have been purchased for wolf monitoring. Award will be made on or after July 24, 2012. Contact person for questions is Deryl Morse at 907-644-3313 or email at [email protected]. Award amount for the contract is anticipated to be under $5,000.
